FIDO
“Fiction & Documentary shows powerful and fascinating films that explore the world in unusual and challenging ways. We want to invite our audience to take a first-rate cinephile journey around the world and to discover the present and future of cinema together.” (Doris Bauer, Marija Milovanovic)

The jury — consisting of Croatian programmer and festival director Marina Kožul, Swiss producer Stella Händler and Vienna-based comedian Hosea Ratschiller — awards the Vienna Short Film Award and the Jury Prize. The Elfi Dassanowsky Award for the Best Female Director is awarded across competitions. All awarded films are eligible for the Academy Awards®, the European Film Awards & the BAFTA Award.
