[Frameworks] Student Film/Video Fests?

[Laura Trager]

The backup_festival in Weimar, Germany is exactly what you are looking for.
Their deadline passed for this year, the festival is happening in May. But
there is no submission fee, and they are specifically looking to screen
films of students and emerging artists. They have two competitions with
monetary prizes, and an audience award.

right hand corner)

Best,
Laura
