At the heart of the festival’s programme, the Official Competition reveals the talent of European film-makers who are hardly distributed outside their countries’ borders. It aims at favouring the circulation of their works throughout Europe.

12 feature films are competing for the Crystal Arrow awarded by the festival’s jury. The winner will be granted financial support for the distribution of his/her film in Europe and throughout the world.

Frédéric Boyer is in charge of the selection that will be disclosed in October 2010.
