Saturday May 7th, the seventh edition of the international documentary film festival DOCVILLE (Leuven, Belgium) announced its awards. The American documentary Marwencol was awarded Best International Documentary. Marwencol directed by Jeff Malmberg tells the story of a man who was beaten into a coma and then, as a kind of therapy builds an imaginary Belgian miniature WWII era-town, populated by Barbie and GI Joe dolls. This prize is the 14th festival award for Marwencol. The film was previously awarded at Silver Docs, Hot Docs and Vienna International Film Festival.
