“It’s fitting to present Regional awards for the first time because we received so much amazing work from around the world,” stated Jonathan Jirjis, executive producer at The One Club and head of the One Screen program. “Global interest and participation in One Screen have grown sharply over the years, promoting us to recognise the best of the best by region.

“This year’s entries include provocative subject matter that prompts us to think about how we’re progressing as a people, and sparks conversation on how to keep us moving forward in the right direction.”

Sponsors for the 2020 One Screen Short Film Festival were Tanteo Tequila and Brooklyn Brewery.
