The Schécci Short Movie Award is an international competition dedicated to short-form cinema, created with the aim of promoting creativity, narrative research, and technical quality in the short film format. The festival welcomes works from all over the world, offering emerging and professional filmmakers a space for visibility and artistic exchange.

The competition is open to fiction short films, documentaries, experimental films, animated films, and music videos, produced with professional production standards. Each filmmaker may submit multiple works and enter the same work into multiple categories, in accordance with the procedures established by the submission platform.

Selected works are evaluated by a jury composed of directors, film industry professionals, critics, and cinema experts, who assess each film according to internal criteria of artistic, technical, and narrative quality. Jury decisions are final and not subject to appeal. Winning works may be screened during the official final event of the competition.
