This year, as in the previous ones, Curtas Vila do Conde tours the country again with a selection of some of the best films of this edition. The "Best of Curtas" will screened some of the awarded films, and the "Curtinhas" session, dedicated to the youngest, is composed of small and fun films thought for the whole family.

The 28th edition of Curtas Vila do Conde was announced today at the closing ceremony of the festival. "The Unseen River" by Vietnamese Pham Ngoc Lân was the winner of the International Competition Great Prize. In the National Competition the big winner of the Best Film Award was Diogo Salgado with "Noite Turva". 

The 28th edition of Curtas de Vila do Conde starts this Saturday, October 3rd. A festival with a special format, committed to the new times, but where the actuality and urgency of the program are again the main focus of the event that wants to be the stage for the dissemination of what is best done, experienced or reinvented in short format cinema. 

This year, and for the first time, it is also possible to follow Curtas' program from home. Curtas Online takes almost the whole programme of the festival to the whole country, with emphasis on the main competitions, which you will be able to watch entirely.

A session that celebrates the short film and presents a set of works by internationally renowned filmmakers who have since established themselves in feature films and who insist on returning to short films.

This is the second edition of "My Generation", the section which involves students between 14 and 18 years of school in the region (José Régio Secondary Schools, D. Afonso Sanches, Eça de Queirós, Rocha Peixoto and ESMAD - School of Media Arts and Design).
