The students of Jury 12+ will see and vote a selection of short films. Proposed works explore the complex coming-of-age period where one is no longer a child nore yet an adult. After the screening, the students will vote through voting cards expressing a number between 1 and 10. Winning films of the Competition will be announced at the end of the Festival.
