The 21 International Film Festival celebrates the art of film-making, helps support a community of artists and showcases Hong Kong as an entertainment and travel destination. The festival supports and nurtures emerging independent filmmakers and their stories from around the world not currently found in mainstream Hong Kong cinema.
The festival will screen narratives, documentaries, animation and music videos. No matter the subject, if the work has merit and the filming is well done – we are interested in viewing it. The festival is looking for all genres of narratives from comedy to drama and from thrillers to love stories. Your film will be viewed by our local audiences and will be judged by a jury of film professionals and a community of cinephiles.
FPP believes in the power of entertainment used to help others learn (Walt Disney called it “edutainment”). The F5 initiative is intended to engage financial educators to show them the benefits of teaching financial topics using content that entertains, informs, and influences. Further, the film work will provide Florida learning leaders resources they can incorporate into their lesson plans.
The desired outcome is to get students of all ages watching your short film/video in classrooms across Florida. When they do, our next generation of Floridians will be better prepared for their financial future.
FPP is not looking for boring, industry teaching videos! Funny, dramatic, thought-provoking content, related to personal finance, that engages the audience is an essential for this Call for Submissions!
I Have Filmmaking Skills, But I Don’t Know Much About Finance . . .
Rest assured, FPP is here to help filmmakers with their financial knowledge if they have the talent to tell an engaging story! FPP is thrilled to connect filmmakers with a mentor to help with that aspect of the production. What FPP wants most is your story-telling talent!
FPP will create lesson plans around your film (if selected) opening up the possible audiences for your work.

Join the most popular IMDb-qualifying Monthly Festival in Europe !
+1.000 five star reviews, thousands of submissions from 150+ countries in the world.
Founded in Rome in 2018, in seven years the Prisma Awards has grown to become one of the most community-oriented festivals, hosting more than 400 filmmakers from all over the world and presenting films driven by the urgency to evoke emotions, by the desire to move people, films that bravely tell stories that deserve to be told — no matter the budget, no matter the culture, no matter the genre.
WE LOOK FOR MEANING. WE LOOK FOR UNITY. WE LOOK FOR BALANCE.
In the monthly film festival landscape, many events are unethical and non-transparent, charging filmmakers embarrassing entry fees without then committing to showing and promoting their work in the best way possible. We at the Prisma Awards work to reshape this system for the better.
We created an always improving stage-by-stage monthly festival that revolves around live screenings in Rome and with submission costs within reach of everyone (???????? ????????????'???? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????????????? ???????????????????????????????????????????? ???????????? ???????????????????????????????????? ????????????????????????????????????????: ???????????????? ???? ???????????????????????? ????????????????????, ???????????????? ???????????????? ???????? ???????????????????????????????????????? ???????????? ???????????? 24 ???????????????????????????????????? ????????????????????????). In this way, first-time filmmakers and world-class talent can participate in a fair competition where everyone starts from the same line.

Hosted by Cinema Azzurro Scipioni, in its first year Prisma Awards saw Silvano Agosti as the president of the jury, legendary italian director that has worked alongside the greatest italian professionals like Morricone, Storaro, Piovani and many others. In its second year it moved to Cinema dei Piccoli, one of the oldest movie theaters of Rome in the heart of Villa Borghese park since 1934. In 2020 the new artistic director Marcello Di Trocchio stepped in, shaping a series of screenings on Twitch very popular during the pandemic. In 2021, the festival came back live at Cinema Farnese, one of the most magical cinemas in Rome, where it currentyl holds its events.
Many of the films we’ve screened have passed through first-class festivals, like the short films ????????́???? by Gunnur Martinsdóttir Schlüter or ???????????????????????? ???????????? by Jasmin Tenucci , both winners of the Special Mention at Cannes Film Festival, or ???????????? ???????????????????????????????????? by João Gonzalez and ???????????????????????? ???????? ???????????????????????? by Leo Berne and Raphaël Rodriguez, both shortlisted in the Academy Awards, or ???????????????? ???????????????? by Lucía G.
