One Hundredth of a Second

My friend Iwan, forwarded this to me. One Hundredth of a Second is a short, fictional film of a woman who wins a "New Photographer of the Year" award for a photo made during some sort of siege. The congratulatory applause completely mocks the gravity of the situation in which the photograph was made, and the photograph itself. I can only begin to imagine how photographers like James Nachtwey deal with their success coming from capturing such awful situations. Perhaps photojournalists are not the "fraud," but the way in which their image is fed to and received by the public.
