2007 Diversions Short Film Award

This year's Short Film Award organised by Temple Bar Cultural Trust in association with Filmbase as part of the 2007 Diversions Festival has been announced.

This year the Temple Bar Cultural Trust has increased the prize fund to 5,000 euros (which is aimed at supporting the marketing and distribution of the winning Irish short film). Filmbase will sponsor pre and postproduction facilities and equipment at their Curved Street offices and studios to the value of almost 5,000 euros.

A shortlist of 12 films will be chosen from all entries received. One short-listed film will precede each Movie on the Square feature film that will be screened as part of the open-air 2007 Diversions Festival.

The deadline for receipt of submissions is 5pm on Friday, April 6, 2007, and each entry must be available as a 35mm print film.
