We are proud to announce the ShanghaiPRIDE Film Festival 2017 Chinese Short Film Competition Winners! Congratulations to all who won and were nominated. For those who missed the screenings of the winning films, join us on Day 2 of ShPFF 2017 as some of the nominated films will be screened.
The complete list of winners are:
Forty films were submitted to this year’s ShPFF Chinese Short Film Competition, and in the run for the five awards. The juries were very impressed by the diversity and quality of the short films. ShPFF launched its Short Film Competition inviting filmmakers to submit works (fiction, documentary or experimental) which tell stories of LGBT/queer Chinese characters. Filmmakers of all backgrounds and experiences are eligible. Our top prize includes the chance to win funding for your next film through our partner, Iris Prize Festival. In 2017, that prize was £30,000 (300,000RMB).
