Selection of Young Jury and Students Jury for Tofifest 2014
The competition for young jurors for the Tofifest IFF has been officially opened. All students of secondary schools and students of colleges and universities in the region of Kujawsko-Pomorskie are welcome to participate. We will select two three-member teams from among all applicants: the students jury and the youth jury, which will support the professional jury in assessing films in the On Air main competition.
Rules of the competition are very simple. The only requirement is to send a review of any film that is now screened in cinemas, by 1st October 2014. Reviews cannot exceed 3,500 characters in length. All texts must be sent to press@tofifest.pl.
The following people can participate in the competition:
- Students Jury: People with a valid student card of any university/college in the region of Kujawsko-Pomorskie, or people who start their higher education in the region, on 1st October.
- Young Jury: People with a valid student card of any secondary school in the region of Kujawsko-Pomorskie, or people who start their high school education in the region, on 1st October. (In the case of the Young Jury, underage participants must have their parents’ approval for participating in the competition, and an approval of their class teacher to participate in festival screenings at the Tofifest IFF, if such would be in conflict with classes at school).
From among all applications, we will select three people for the Young Jury and three people for the Students Jury. Such jurors will not only have the right to assess films, but also access to the entire festival, festival galas, and the opportunity to take part in the life of the festival, and to have close contact with filmmakers/festival guests. Results will be announced on 6th October 2014.
The Tofifest IFF is called a "rebellious festival" and it has been around, since 2003. The festival focuses on ambitious cinema “with a sparkle”.
