Jury of the Festival

The Jury designates other members of the jury on the principle that a director has a film in some other category in the official selection of the Festival. Furthermore, the third member of the jury – a representative from the field – has to be closely related to the field of the category he or she judges in. For instance, a professor at the College of Tourism could be a member of the jury in the category of Tourist Film.
