Feature Length Competition

The Feature Length Competition (international competition) aims to discover and nurture the next generation of filmmakers. It is open to theatrical feature films over 70 minutes in length, that were shot and edited digitally by directors with fewer than 4 feature film credits to their name. This year, we have received 536 entries from 84 countries and regions. Among them a total of 12 films, 9 international and 3 domestic, will screen in the competition. This year, we are proud to provide opportunities to the audiences to see films from countries such as Ukraine and Brazil, from which Japanese audience has rarely seen films. After the final round of judging by four international jury members, a certificate and trophy from the festival organizers and Sony D-Cinema Award (sponsored by Sony Business Solutions and Sony PCL) are given to the winners. In addition, the SKIP CITY AWARD will be given to one Japanese director in the competition, providing access to SKIP City facilities for a limited time.
