Jury Statement

Jeu has touched the childlike emotions within us and disrupted the discipline of the adult world. It calls into question our priorities in our interactions with children. Jeu subtly and creatively shows children that they have the right to dream, to go far away, and to be their true selves (which is precisely where their strength lies). With a simple approach and elegant style, Jeu reaffirms to children the principle that: you can play to your heart’s content, because imagination can overcome all obstacles and can even change those poor adults.
