The Lorenzo Vecchio Prize goes to Éramos pocos by the Spaniard Borja Cobeaga which, some months later, receives an Oscar nomination for the Best Narrative Short Film

The jury is presided over by Carlo Virzì (musician and director) along with Duccio Cimatti (DOP), Andrea Agnello (screenplayer), Bruno Russo (professor of  “Techniques of narration and audiovisual media” at the Catania University) and Ignazio Plaia (member of Filmoteca regionale Siciliana).

Great success is also achieved by the two special sections which Magma creates through the collaboration of two prestigious institutions: FAMU (Film and TV School of the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague) and ACE (Spanish Short Film Agency).

Famu and Ace present a short film selection that enriches the festival programme offered to the audience.
