Cyprus Film Days 2015 (Nicosia)

The Festival consists of two main programmes: the international competitive section known as Glocal Images and the non-competitive section known as Viewfinder which comprises films that have been screened and awarded at major festivals over the past year. For the first time this year, the Festival introduces a National Competition Section, exclusively showcasing Cypriot productions. Special tributes, parallel screenings, master classes, workshops and musical events, complete the program of the official International Film Festival of Cyprus.

This is the first time that Cyprus Film Days incorporates a special section with films for young audiences. The Cyprus Film Days for Children and Youth, which is co-organised in collaboration with the International Children’s Film Festival of Cyprus, includes screenings of international awarded films for young audiences as well as short films produced by children in Cyprus and Greece.

A three-member Artistic Committee is responsible for the selection of films within the programme, while a Jury made up of internationally recognised professionals, awards films accordingly. The awards are as follows: Best Film, Special Jury Award and Best Director. For the first time this year, a new award is introduced for the National Competition Section, which will be given to the Best National Film. The audience also has the opportunity to vote for their favourite film, which then receives the Audience Award.

All films are presented in their original language with Greek and English subtitles. The Festival takes place at the Rialto Theatre, in Limassol and Zena Palace Cinema, in Nicosia.

All films will be screened in their original language with Greek and English subtitles.
