The 10th edition of the Shnit International Short Film Festival kicks off on October 3. For the first time, the Federal Office of Culture is supporting the festival with a project grant.
To mark its 10th anniversary, the International Short Film Festival shnit is planning numerous innovations and a few surprises for the 2012 edition. The opening ceremony is to take place in the Heiliggeistkirche for the first time, a new competition has been launched, the Loeb showcase will focus extensively on the festival's history and the catalog will be published in book form with an inserted 10-year shnit DVD just in time for the festival.
In addition, the golden Shnit trophy "The Flaming Faun" was redesigned. This underlines the size and importance of the competition that has now been achieved, the organizers said in a press release.
