De jury van de Tiger Short 2025 bestond uit film- en videokunstcurator Angela Haardt, voormalig Tiger Short Award-winnaar Frank Sweeney en productie- en acquisitiemanager Yaoting Zhang van het wereldwijde verkoop- en productiebedrijf Rediance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

De jury over A Metamorphosis<\/strong><\/em>: \u201cSome films explain; others immerse. This one is not to be understood but experienced\u2014like a dream where logic dissolves and meaning flickers just beyond reach. The director crafts a disjointed, hypnotic counter-broadcast. Images, texts, and melodies drift in a stream separately, yet together they create a world both infinite and precise, where the familiar becomes uncanny, daily life distorts into something eerie yet intimate. The film captures the disorienting texture of memory under dictatorship, where propaganda shapes childhood, and symbols seep into the subconscious. A lullaby echoes\u2014soft, haunting, inescapable\u2014blurring the line between comfort and unease. Like poetry, it thrives on the accidental, the fleeting, the inexplicable. It is an act of reclamation and rupture, almost playful in its defiance, breaking apart compositions and narratives once imposed, only to reconstruct them into something raw, elusive, and deeply felt. This is cinema as an open wound, as a lingering echo, as a rustic door\u2014leading to forbidden memories while also opening toward possibilities of exit.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

De jury over Temo Re<\/strong><\/em>: \u201cConnecting passing people and places through the eyes of a delivery driver hitting the same daily potholes, we are reminded that travelling shots may well be a question of morality. A cinematic exploration of urban mobility where the images refuse to move, this film is bursting with animate characters stuck in a broken city. Although Tbilisi here emits a particular kind of otherworldly decay – broken cities, structures and systems feel increasingly familiar. When things break down, they need a push, and in the space between these still images, we can imagine all that is solid one day melting. Keep your eyes on the road.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

De jury over Merging Bodies<\/strong><\/em>: \u2018\u2019Although a commissioned film, it shows the process of making aluminium from the liquid mass to shields ready to be sold. But it is not the normal documentary we could expect. The beauty is in the scrupulous observations of tiny changes in the structure and colour of the product. At the same time the director does not lose contact with the labour force, the workers who stand behind. And those both qualities together makes it an unusual film that we wanted to honour.\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nominatie European Short Film Award 2025\u00a0<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n


IFFR maakt deel uit van een reeks Europese filmfestivals die elk een kandidaat inzendt voor de categorie korte film van de European Film Awards. De jury heeft La Durmiente<\/strong><\/em> (Portugal, Spanje) van Maria In\u00eas Gon\u00e7alves genomineerd voor de European Short Film Award.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

De jury over La Durmiente<\/strong><\/em>:<\/strong>\u201c\u200b\u200bA historical meditation poem, balancing between evocations of the past and the lightness of an afternoon workshop. The camera wanders, between documentary and reenactment, landscape and portraits, abstract and concrete, echoing the tradition of Portuguese cinema while exploring the richly intertwined cultural history of the Iberian Peninsula. The presence of architectural heritage shapes a timeless, otherworldly beauty, with an anachronistic approach. The child actors, innocent and solemn, guide us in contemplating the fate of women amid the great historical upheavals of centuries past. Rich elements are gently harmonised and constructed under the director\u2019s delicate, gentle touch. A most promising work for European cinema.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
