As youth jury we are familiar with the concept of growing-up, which we have in common with the main character of the awarded film. This allows us to understand him well. Because of difficulties, effort and desire to fulfill his dreams and ambitions he becomes familiar to young audience. We were enchanted by the fact, that dreams of this boy go beyond himself and that he wants to improve the life of the entire population of his village. Hari Rai together with the fridge stepped on the path towards adulthood. Life of a young person is a difficult walk, which leads through windy and bumpy paths.
