Semi-Finalists
Below are the Semi Finalists - those films which we have selected to consider for awards. This does not mean an automatic screening at the cinema, but does ensure inclusion in our online screening after the event, with the filmmaker's permission. Any money received from this will go to the filmmaker.
In addition, the top scoring semi-finalists will be screened at the cinema on the day of the competition event, and will be considered for inclusion in the Sunday Sussex Special events to be held between February and November 2024. Filmmakers will be informed in good time as to when their film will be screened - but we cannot pay for filmmakers to attend in person.
