National Competition 1

This year’s National Competition features eight short films made in 2020 with a running time of thirty minutes or less. Thematically, they address growing up, the search for and perception of oneself, or questions related to prejudice or social and cultural stereotypes.

The international jury for this competition section will present one award for best film, which comes with a financial prize of 2,000 Euros, plus one honorable mention. Viewers can choose their favorite in this section by voting online.

Films can be seen at cinemas in Prague and throughout the Czech Republic, but also online at  www.kviff.tv, were you can vote for the Audience Awards and win a festival pass for the 55th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival.
