The winner of the MIOB in Shorts Award 2023 is Primal Therapy (Finland), directed by Santtu Salminen. The winning film of the MIOB in Shorts Award, was announced and awarded at the 33nd FilmFestival Cottbus in November 2023.
Introduced in 2021, the MIOB in Shorts Award drew nominations from MIOB member festivals across Europe, resulting in a lineup of 12 short films from various countries. The aim was to captivate a broader European audience and encourage their involvement through a voting system, allowing them to have a say in determining the winner. To facilitate this democratic process, a dedicated "Watch & Vote" section was launched on the MIOB website, granting viewers the opportunity to enjoy the nominated films online over the course of a month.
The selection showcased the immense talent and creativity of emerging European filmmakers, providing a platform for their work to be recognized and appreciated.
MIOB network is committed to promoting European short films, engaging the audience, and providing emerging filmmakers with opportunities for growth and recognition.
The next edition of MIOB In Shorts will take place in October 2024. Stay tuned!
