Competition Programme – Student Film 2017
The Competition Programme – Student Film launches this year in keeping with the Sarajevo Film Festival's mission to discover new talents, and aims to promote the work of students of regional film schools, universities and academies. More than one third of the titles submitted for this year’s edition of the Competition were made by students during the course of their film studies, confirming the need for this new section, which aims to aid in the professional development of aspiring regional filmmakers.
The programme features fiction, documentary and animated student films of less than 60 minutes in length. This year, the competition line-up includes 13 of the best regional student films, and is complemented by three films produced by students of the Sam Spiegel Film School, Jerusalem that are presented out of competition.
The selected films compete for the Heart of Sarajevo Award for Best Student Film.
