SHORT FILMS FOR KIDS COMPETITION
Best Film for Kids
Ethnophobia, Joan Zhonga (GREECE 2016)
It was a very pleasant story, with loads of imagination, beautiful colours, as well as funny language and interesting crafts. In a fairly funny manner, we saw the human struggle for survival, the compromises needed in a society but also the domination of the powerful against the weak. Finally, though, when the rain comes, after the war and destruction, we realise how we are all the same.
Special Mention for a Short Film for Kids
Lilou, Rawan Rahim (FRANCE 2015)
It was a funny story with beautiful drawings. We really liked Lilou's character and her magic bow, as well as how she found the power to see the ugly past of the people around her, understand it and help them overcome the adversities in life.
GRADUATION FILMS COMPETITION
Best Student Film
Ruben Leaves, Frederic Siegel (SWITZERLAND 2015)

Pole Star, Ilaeira Misirliadi (FRANCE/GREECE 2016)
An honest, straightforward and sweet film. Makes the viewer travel with an artist.
Special Mention for a Student Film
Ayny - My Second Eye, Ahmad Saleh (GERMANY / JORDAN / PALESTINE 2016)
A film with compelling sound design and powerful moments of silence. The artist achieved an expression of music through silence. It is a request for peace.
