|  Methexis Award

The International Short films Competition mixed Jury is made of students of National Schools of Cinema based in European and Mediterranean Countries and it is complemented by a group of detainees selected among one of the Penitentiary Institutions adhering to the Project.
In a plenary session inside the prison two wings of the jury compare their decisions and then decide together who should be the winner of the Methexis Award. Therefore students and prisoners have the opportunity to share an exciting work experience leading to inter-cultural dialogue and exchange.
The Jury Coordinator for the second year now is the documentary director Angelo Loy.
