Yesterday was a big night at TFF. As decided by our distinguished juries, we proudly announced the top award winners of our 2013 Festival. Films like The Rocket, The Kill Team, Oxyana, Let the Fire Burn and more were honored with various prizes that will ensure that these filmmakers will have the means to continue to do great work. Congratulations again to all our winners!
