With more emphasis on storytelling and creativity than ever before, the 2016 Film Festival, which ran from October 2015-September 2016, was the most successful festival to date. The 2016 Festival diverged from previous years by asking students to submit their films into one of three categories: A Day in the Life, Creative Short, and IES Abroad Film Course Production.
Starting with a record-breaking 70 film submissions from around the world, 18 semi-finalists were sent to the jury and 5 finalist films were opened up to the public for voting on our Facebook page.
After 2,000+ votes in just five days’ time, the award of Study Abroad Film Festival Grand Prize Winner went to Even in Europe… by Jordan Cain for his light-hearted, and smile-filled dance video across Europe.
