They are also among the 10 most prestigious graphic design competitions in the world.

WITA, Wildcat International Talent Award, is an international online film festival dedicated to Independent cinema, based in Rome, Italy.
Our mission is to recognize, enhance and give visibility to the true talents of independent cinema that, like the Wildcat, a wonderful protected species in danger of extinction, risk not being rightly appreciated in the international independent scene and therefore not being considered.
Our goal is to reward all the artistic figures who contribute to the making of a film: directors, screenwriters, actresses and actors, authors of photography, music, editing and scenography, because only thanks to the work of everyone can a good film be made. In special cases, the award reserves the possibility of awarding further recognition.
The jury is composed of experts in the sector and the works will be evaluated based on criteria such as originality, technical quality, experimentation and artistic value.
On an annual basis, the Festival selects the finalists of each category by promoting the trailers of their works and related video interviews on all social channels and on the festival website. The winners will be announced within 60 days of the official announcement of all the finalists. The times and methods of awarding will be communicated on the festival channels and via email to participants.

PHILOSOPHY
What drive us:
A contest dedicated to transcendental free cinema, at its several meanings, including philosophic, psychological, scientific, anthropological, spiritual and poetic cinema.
Because transcendence in the man and the world, might be eventually ineffable and, on this, cinematographic art has certain advantages, and a huge responsibility.
FREE CINEMA
All cinematographic possibilities are welcome, with a major interest on rareties
WITHOUT TIME
Cinemística as an open space-time, with non restrictive features, enabling the authors to develop their own language: all formats, duration, nationality, year of production, etc. are accepted.
A REFUGE
An international refuge for films that intend, technically or with the plot, an approaching to the big mystery of world representation, in the art and in the man. Without dogmas, under any individual or collective perspective, from faith, but also from agnosticism, spiritual atheism and scientific thought.
A POETIC CINEMA OF CONTEMPLATION
Filmmakers' looks, in all their socio-cultural diversity, interested in any film as a result of personal discovering, researching or experimentation, inspiration and work, from revelation or introspection of the authors. Quotidian, ecstasy and disparity as structures to create depth on the film treatment.
ASCETICISM
Mysticism and asceticism in film production represent, probably, a more absolute estate compare to others, because a cinema with huge budget and more technical complexity could be done, but sometimes the most humble and simple film is, however, universal.
THE STILL
Impermanent cinematographies, from the still, from 'amateur' cinema (from French verb aimer), define directors not only by what they show and how they do it on screen, but by what they decide not to show.
PHENOMENOLOGY
What appears and disappears, topologies emergence, materials or conscious, and their invisibility or subsequent expiration. The sequential surroundings of emptiness, of matters and time. Shafts at the discourse, eloquent, everyone can understand it by himself. Absence and miracle: Mystic as a possible cohabit together.
CORDIALITY, COMMUNICATION & COLLOQIUMS
Great importance of the colloquiums and live interaction between spectators and filmmakers. maximum communication, respect, sympathy and closeness from the organization to the filmmakers, artists and directors who come to present their films.

The rights holder of the festival is the Open Platform For Art NGO․ Symbol of the festival represents a three-dimensional statue of ancient rock carving from Geghama mountain which is 5000 years old.
We organize this festival in order to create a new reason to produce and introduce films and any other work of art that concentrate on the world’s problems and riches, and to pioneer the creation of a free platform and reward these works. We live in an era where too much information, and input that cannot be considered as information flow at a disconcertingly rapid pace in every plausible channel. We organize this festival so that we could all seek what is more local and smaller, and more importantly the one that is true and genuine together.
The ecological problems are increasing and becoming more and more varied; however, we also witness hope-inspiring developments. We organize this festival in order to create a platform that nurtures this hope. We hope that through our festival, the residents of Bozcaada, farmers, producers, scientists, artists, and all our guests will be informed about the current technological developments, environmental disasters and innovations, the most recent documentary techniques and also about each other’s existence. We hope that our festival will contribute to nurture solidarity.
