Our
Awards
All you need to know
What would a film festival be without a few awards ? You tell me.
Until then, we'd like to think that not only should films be shown to the public but also give something back to those who invested their energy, resources and many hours of hard work into making them.
Each film submitted is watched entirely and judged by a panel of professionals. They are passionate individuals who value all aspects of film making.
Every film screened has a chance to win an award and so we try to reward as many categories as we can.
Here are some of the awards BELIFFestival provide and the perks you'll get on top....
