The Official Competition celebrates its tenth anniversary in 2017, marking a decade of awarding the Sydney Film Prize to each year’s most 'audacious, cutting-edge and courageous' film. The competition is endorsed by FIAPF, the regulating body for international film festivals, and is judged by a jury of five international and Australian filmmakers and industry professionals. The $60,000 cash prize is presented at SFF’s Closing Night ceremony on Sunday 18 June. In 2016 a jury of five international and Australian filmmakers and industry professionals selected Aquarius, directed by Kleber Mendonça Filho, to receive the Sydney Film Prize.
