Nine films compete for the Short Film Award, which is endowed with 500 Euro and will be awarded by an international jury. Once again the program covers a broad range of forms and themes – from experimental ads, music videos and an animated coming-of-age story, with sci-fi machines, magical dildos and public interventions to BDSM scenes and an essay about sexwork and intimacy.
