Another twenty-six titles have been selected for the International Super Shorts Competition. Nine Georgian films are competing at the festival.
The jury will award two prizes in the main international competition (with films from 10 to 30 minutes), the Golden Dinosaur for best film and best director, as well as the Dinosaur’s Footprint award in the second international competition (with films from 1 to 5 minutes).
"We received about five hundred films for the two competitions. The selection turned out to be difficult because in general the cinema is in a state of crisis; however, I think there are some excellent films in the main competition and that gives us hope. We are thrilled that the very first festival aroused great interest and we received films from almost every country in the world. We hope that the Covid-19 situation will not deteriorate sharply in Georgia and we will be capable to hold the festival in accordance with the regulations", Nino Mkheidze, General Director of the festival, told FNE.
