Nicely achieved.

It is a nice campaign, with really great photos.
BUT
Concept is more than obvious.
Idea is very old.
The art direction is as gloomy as my granny at the hospital having mashed apple for lunch.
(well, some dogs are daltonic and cannot read, but, what about their holders?)
The subject of the campaign is Rex being listed at a film festival (a plausible assignment, indeed)
SO
Why awarding it?
Yes, AOTW is focused on creativity only, so never mind if the campaign was just meant to promote itself...
