The jury highlights her ability "with unfailing poetic temperament" to tell about "contrasts and paradoxes in a dizzyingly humorous love game where life is at stake."

"The world is a very terrible emptiness right now. That is precisely why we must take care of each other and try to maximize tenderness," says Isabella Nilsson in a press release.
The prize money is 50,000 kronor.
