Best of Peer Award
The 'Peer Award' - like the name suggests - will be handed out by the participating filmmakers at the festival. Directors get to know each other's work and reward, after voting, the film that deserves the award according to them. Both the nominated films for the Peer Award 2025 and those nominated in the current edition will be screened at the festival. You can admire this year’s nominations at a one-off screening on the final day of the festival. The 2026 winner will be revealed during the closing night on 5 December.
