PROFFESSIONALS // FAQ

SELECTION PROCESS

• Are the DVDs sent for the selection process returned?
• What should I do if the original language of my registration info (title, credits, etc... ) contains non-Latin characters and I want to avoid spelling mistakes when writing the name of my film for all the festival items?
The easiest thing to do is to print the registration on paper and correct by hand, clearly, all the symbols and other non-Latin characters so that each and every word (of the names, titles…) will be easily identified. After that, include the copy in the shipment for the selection Committee, the paper with the corrections.
• How should I demonstrate that the shipment of a film is made before the established deadline?
• How will the list of selected films be announced?
