Haven Originals' NEW WORLD (pizza) ORDER Wins Humanitarian Award in Accolade Global Film Competition
TEL AVIV, Israel, April 20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- NEW WORLD (pizza) ORDER, of Haven Originals, has won a prestigious Award of Distinction Humanitarian Award from the Accolade Global Film Competition. The award was given for Oshri Cohen's exciting short film, which is part of Project Out, a series of short films about the little man vs. government / big tech. Each film tells a story of a different character in a different world of rules and a constant conflict - how far should we go in order to remain good law-abiding citizens.
NEW WORLD (pizza) ORDER tells the story of an average joe, who simply wants to order a pizza through his smart speaker. In his hurry and hunger, he's tempted to accept new terms and conditions, allowing the use of his personal information in order to make the order process frictionless. This leads to a terrifying realization that "they" know way too much. He finds himself in a violent interrogation by the government – in his living room.
"We're thrilled to receive this award. Haven Originals, our concept development production house focuses on the production of content with the goal of encouraging critical thinking and breaking paradigms. We're very proud of this project and see this award as a testament that our efforts are echoing" Ronen Menipaz, co-Founder, Haven Originals
The goal of the Humanitarian Award is to honor filmmakers who are bringing awareness to issues of Ecological, Political, Social Justice, Health and Wellness, Animals, Wildlife, Conservation and Spiritual importance – combined with excellence in filmmaking craft.
