Audience Award

Audience Award

The Audience Award is where festival audiences decide which film they feel deserves recognition. The award acts as a kind of opinion indicator separate from the professional juries, and tells us what our audiences are currently most interested in. The Audience Award, worth €1,000, has been sponsored by film magazine choices. Entries must be at least 60 minutes long and no more than two years old. We look forward to receiving your vote!
