The poetic experimental short film CREATION by writer-director Marcelle Abela has been nominated for Best Documentary Short at the 2019 Prisma Independent Film Awards that is being held in Rome, Italy. The film has won Best Music at the Spring Edition of the 2019 Top Indie Film Awards in Tokyo, Japan, where it was also nominated for Best Original Idea and Best Editing. Creation is a short documentary of beauty and ugliness, orderliness and chaos, light and darkness, joy and sadness, antiquity and postmodernity, primitivity and the advancement of technology, war and peace, destruction and creation/re-creation, birth/life and death.

Final sound mix was in the hands of the Serbian sound engineer Mirko Sukovic at Two Tons of Sound in Belgrade.
