32 films from 13 countries were competing for this 22th Oenovidéo Festival . The Oenovideo Award 2015 was unanimously attributed by the jury to the film "A la source du vin" (at the source of wine) from director Philippe Gasnier (Girelle Production) for the cinematic representation of strength of a great human adventure of winemakers. This feature film takes us between Georgia and France in the footsteps of a true cultural mix. The Jury was struck by the authenticity emanating from these winemakers whose wines are pure expression of their respect for the land and people.

Official award ceremony, Wednesday, September 23, 2015 at the Luxembourg Palace in Paris.
