Anders Haubjerg was acknowledged with the Ritzau Scanpix Prize for best photojournalistic BA-project at yesterday’s online graduation ceremony.

Andreas received the prize for his BA-project “A Real Man”, which he made in the fall 2020. “A Real Man” shows 16 personal stories about men, who have been victims of different kinds of domestic violence. The stories are told in portraits, texts and sound.

After 35 years’ marriage, Lasse’s wife left him with their mutual debt.
“I couldn’t manage anything”, Lasse says.
Lasse’s story is told in text and sound as a part of Andreas’ BA-project.

“A Real Man” are stories about men, who have been isolated from their kids. Men, who have had to ask for permission from their wives to meet with friends. Some of the men have been accused for things like incest and drug abuse – without any reason. Others have been hit or psychological degraded.

The video animation of the exhibition was part of Andreas’ BA-project
and the short video was shown at the graduation ceremony, yesterday.
Yesterday’s graduation ceremony was streamed from the campus at DMJX, since it couldn’t be held fysically due to the Corona restrictions.
