Local Artists Competition
One of the upcoming events of this year's Transilvania International Film Festival is our Local Artists Competition opened to both professional and non-professional filmmakers from Cluj.
The City of Cluj is undoubtedly one of the most important cultural centers, with a vivid artistic background, as demonstrated, among other things, by the increasing number of films coming from this region and submitted to TIFF for pre-selection, from one edition to another.
Through this initiative, the organizers aim to encourage and promote films made by amateurs and professionals or other works that belong to the visual arts, and so far haven't had an opportunity to be screened at the festival.
The Competition is meant for amateur and professional filmmakers alike, presently living, working or studying anywhere inside Cluj County.
The films entered in this TIFF powered Competition will be screened throughout the whole period of the festival.
The best work from the Cluj Artists' Competition will be chosen by a jury consisting of three personalities and will be awarded 1500 Euros at the Award Ceremony . Besides the Grand Prize, a Special Mention will also be awarded to the film that most creatively explores the subject of public space.
The movies will be screened on 2.06.2010, from 20.30, at Insomnia Cafe.
