Numerous awards are attributed including the Feature Film Grand Prize (15 000€); the Short Film Grand Prize (4 000€); the New Talent Prize; the Indie Junior Award (500€), the Amnesty International Award; the Audience Award; and a FIPRESCI Award.
The festival hosts activities that go beyond regular screenings – workshops, master classes, debates, screenings of works in progress for industry guests, networking events, etc.
