of the European Film Academy Short Film Award – Prix UIP. This initiative was established in 1998 to reward excellence in European filmmaking.
This year for the first time our international jury will present the Prix UIP to the Best European Short Film in our international competition. The Prix UIP Cork is open to European films made in 2005 or in 2006. All genres are eligible and the film must be no longer than 15 minutes.
We are one of only fourteen festivals to host this prestigious award: Flanders, Valladolid, Angers, Rotterdam, Berlin, Tampere, Cracow, Grimstad, Vila do Conde, Sarajevo, Edinburgh, Venice, Drama and Cork.
The winner of the Prix UIP at each of these festivals will be shortlisted for the overall European Film Academy Short Film Prix UIP, which will be presented in Warsaw on 2 December.
