Finalist Films to be showcased in Red Carpet Event, featuring Post-Screening Discussion, Audience Favorite Award Voting, and Awards Presentation!

Join us for an unforgettable evening at the FOLCS 10th Awards Night, which closes out our annual International Short Film Competition! Watch the brilliant short films from our Finalists, walk the red carpet with the filmmakers, and be the first to know who takes home the top awards. Engage with the ideas presented in these social justice-themed short films, and cast your vote for the Audience Favorite Award.

At FOLCS, we understand the capacity of film to address issues of injustice and human rights. Not only can movies and documentaries be entertaining, but they can also be a source of enlightenment, sparking conversation and igniting a call for social change. As such, we are proud to offer a platform to emerging voices through our International Short Film Competition.

About the FOLCS International Short Film Competition:

Since 2011, the Forum on Life, Culture & Society has invited independent and aspiring filmmakers from around the globe to share their creative visual stories through its annual International Short Film Competition. This competition encourages entrants to explore the relationship between law, justice, and society, by creating original short films on a legal and/or human rights theme. From documentaries to dramas, animations to comedies, the competition is open to all film genres that express the struggles and injustices that humanity faces, and the noble pursuit and moral imperative of justice. Through this competition, FOLCS hopes to empower filmmakers to use their art to examine and define what “justice” truly means.
