International Short Film Competition Part I

For the 15th time, exground filmfest presents the International Short Film Competition. 16 films from 13 countries are vying for the Jury Prize, endowed with EUR 1,500. The cash prize has been awarded since 2009 by the festival’s Circle of Friends, for which we are very grateful. From fiction features to documentaries and experimental films all the way to animation and music videos,

all genres are represented here once again, including four German premieres and one international premiere. A three-member jury will select the winner of the award for the "best international short film": Soheila Golestani, director from Tehran, Susanne Mertens, editor at ZDF/ARTE Thema from Wiesbaden and Dan Angelo Muggia, head of the film department at Beit Berl College from Tel Aviv. The winner of the competition will be announced at the awards ceremony for the German Short Film Competition on November 20, 2016.
