A dazzling bunch of graduation films have made their way thorough our open call. 12 amazing short films have made their way into Playgrounds International Film Festivalβs competition for Best Student Film.
We mean, of course, the short films that are not afraid of technical challenges and aim for the stars in terms of crafts and production, even though their creators are not yet established professionals but still students. This selection highlights amazing student films created by artists enrolled at Dutch universities, and, in the same time, works that challenge and innovate in terms of audio-visual storytelling. One of them will take home an encouraging prize of β¬ 1000,-Β and the title of Best Student Film.
The prize will be awarded by ourΒ Student Film Competition judges: Narjes Mohammadi, Monique van Kessel and Michael Hauwert.
The 12 shorts have been divided into two blocks of screenings. Check out the entries for Block I:
