KT&G Sangsang Madang is publicly recruiting entries for the 16th Great Short Film Festival until the 23rd.
Started in 2007, the Great Short Film Festival is a cultural contribution program by KT&G Sangsang Madang aimed at discovering and supporting prominent domestic short films.
Eligible submissions are short films under 20 minutes, newly produced after June 1, 2023. Films that pass the preliminary screening will be shown at the festival, held from September 5th to 10th at KT&G Sangsang Madang Cinema. Seven outstanding works will be selected through audience evaluations and professional jury reviews, and the winners will receive a total of 17 million KRW in prize money and trophies.
Additionally, this year's festival will include a newly established 'Production Support Project' to discover and support the production of excellent short screenplays. Selected screenplays will receive a production support fund of 10 million KRW, and the completed works will be screened at the next film festival.
