CASH PRIZE

$15,000

1. Premium Feature on Relay Stories

Your film doesn’t just get screened. It lives on our curated, zero-algorithm platform—where users engage, reflect, and respond.
→ Think: Vimeo Staff Pick energy, but with a community built for feedback and depth.

2. Collaborative Engagement After the Festival

Selected films get “relayed” - meaning viewers can build on your story, reflect through writing or audio, and spark new creations.

→ This turns your film into a cultural catalyst, not just a one-time watch.

3. Visibility with People who Matter

Selected films get “relayed” - meaning viewers can build on your story, reflect through writing or audio, and spark new creations. Every month we highlight selected films through our editorial blog, newsletter, and live community events.

→ It’s about more than clicks and views.

4. Press & Distribution Push

Top selections are pitched for press coverage and industry visibility.

→ We stand behind the work we showcase.

5. Creative Ownership + High Quality Hosting

Your film is streamed at mastering-level quality, without compression, ads, or platform noise. Just the work, as intended.

→ Like a screening in a museum, not a mall.
