 If I want to whistle, I whistle, was rewarded with Silver star award for director Florin Serban, at this year's Cinedays Festival of European Film. In addition, Mr. George Pistereanu was rewarded with special plaque for best male leading role

The jury was consisted of Mr. Sanjin Pejkovic, film critic and university lecturer, Mr. Vlatko Galevski, film critic and Mr. Nicolas Gaster, film director.

The explanation on which they have based their decision is the following:

“This film illustrates the complex relation between one individual and the collectivity in a repressed system; the fact that every decision made in life can have consequences. This film does not answer, it poses the existential answers for which every one of us sometimes asks about. How can we live and not be able to hurt the people around us?” 

The award was ceremonially given to the closing day of the festival to His Excelency, Dr. Adrian-Stefan CONSTANTINESCU, Romania's ambassador in Macedonia.
