The Hedda Jury gave the following reason for the award to Ritsj:
"Combining tempo, silent moments, action and room for the audience's own examinations, is a demanding task. The winner has made it. In an exciting, varied stage design, involving several rooms and landscapes, we are brought into a strange world, in part recognisable and in part surprising. This is a performance that accepts small people's need to be involved without being invaded. To be led further and further into imagination and the game, while being allowed to participate for themselves.
Almost without words, but filled with body language and movement, the ensemble bring sus along on a little more than half an hour's journey, switching between the sensuousness of dance and the narrative art of theatre, all of it clad in an exquisite visual and auditive whole, in which large amounts of sticky, crackling and twisty tape makes up an important ingredient."
