Press Review
Traitant d'un thème complexe en utilisant un langage de cinéma traditionnel, le réalisateur a su développer avec sensibilité la variété des personnages.
(Jury "Léopards de demain", Festival Internazionale del Film Locarno 94)

The director has successfully treated a complex issue in a traditional pictorial language and thereby sensitively developed the diversity of the characters.
(Jury "Léopards de demain", Locarno International Film Festival 94)

The jury awards the "Grand Prix de la Communauté française de Belgique" to JAGDZEIT by Rolando Colla for its profound humanity and his undeniable sense for cinematic expression.
(Jury du Festival International de Namur 1995, Belgium)

In rare unanimity, this year the public and the jury both decided in favour of JAGDZEIT by Rolando Colla. Director Colla does not put things in black-and-white terms: the dramaturgy in his film is convincing throughout. (Gerhard Jäger, "Vorarlberger Nachrichten")

The film has suspense and eroticism. At the same time, it avoids cramping the audience and is highly thought provoking. (Jury "Alpinale 94", Bludenz International Film Festival)

""Stagione di caccia" è una storia intensa e ben strutturata, dove la complessa realtà sociale si intreccia con una storia d'amore, unica via d'uscita alla violenza quotidiana." (Cristina D'Osualdo, "La Cronaca" Trieste)

JAGDZEIT is an intense and well-structured story in which complex social reality is interwoven with a love story; the only way out from everyday violence. (Cristina D'Osualdo, "La Cronaca" Trieste)
