Geraud Alazard, senior vice president of Marketing at AMC Networks International says: The SundanceTV Shorts competition reflects the very essence of the channel.

It encapsulates SundanceTV's unique energy and passion, shining a spotlight on independent storytelling and emerging talent.

Entries must be submitted by 15 April and must be made by the producer or director of the film who can provide proof of residency in South Africa. Films should be no longer than 15 minutes and must be delivered with English subtitles if English is not the language spoken in the film.

The jury, presided by Mike Plante of Sundance Institute, will include Harold Gronenthal from SundanceTV Global, Aletta Alberts, executive head: Content and 3rd Party Channels at MultiChoice and Helen Kuun of Indigenous Film. The winner will receive a trip for two to London and their film will be screened during Sundance Film Festival, London, at a SundanceTV event in June.
