New International Competition Section
The Ministry of Education and Culture announces that the 9th CYPRUS FILM DAYS -International Film Festival 2011, co-organised with the Rialto theatre has been upgraded to an international competition festival. The festival, which is being held for the 9th time this year, will host an international competition section titled "Glocal Images" in which film-makers from around the globe and Cyprus are invited to submit their films.
The films in the competition section will be selected by the festival's artistic committee: Adonis Florides (film director/writer), Dr. Costas Constandinides (Lecturer in Film Studies) and Constantinos Sarkas (Film Journalist). This year's festival will take place from 8 to 17th of April 2011 in Nicosia and Limassol as in previous years.
The showcasing of Cinematic excellence is at the heart of Cyprus Film Days since its first edition in 2003.

- - Best Film Award accompanied by the amount of 7,000 Euros
- - 2nd Best Film Award accompanied by the amount of 3.000 Euros.
An exciting year lies ahead for the festival with the addition of the International Competition Section for feature-length films with the aim of discovering new talents and new stories from all over the world.
