Barbados International Film Festival

PARTITION garnered three awards including the festival's highest award the Golden Trident for Best Film, Best Director (Vic Sarin), and the Audience Choice Award. The film, which stars Jimi Mistry, Kristin Kreuk and Neve Campbell, was written and directed by Vic Sarin. An epic tale set during the partition of India and Pakistan in the 1940s, the film follows two lives that are brought together in a profound and sweeping story that reveals the tenderness of the human heart in the most violent of times. The story resonates today with its strong message of tolerance. Best Documentary went to Andy Abraham Wilson's MURDER IN MESOPOTAMIA . The film, shot like a thriller, captivates the viewer from the first moment. The true story of the cold-blooded murder of a young mother stirs up fear and talk of divine and vigilante justice on the Caribbean island of St. Vincent. “An eye for an eye … and a tooth for a tooth,” originating in ancient Mesopotamia, takes on modern-day meaning in a forgotten village of the same name.
