The competition’s theme, Together or Apart, may be manifested in the submitted material in various manners and methods. Interpersonal aspects, such as family and relationship dramas, trials and tribulations, moments of success and happiness or the joint overcoming of challenges can be taken into account just as well as social, political, juridical and/or cultural matters. In other words: everything is possible, as long as it touches on the topic and is done well.

Filmmakers of all ages and from all over the world are welcome as well to send in thematically fitting contributions.
