FESTIVAL JURY:

Marija Milovanović is the head of the international competition “Fiction & Documentary” and coordinator of the industry events at VIS Vienna Shorts: Austria’s biggest short film festival, where she has worked since 2008.

Mario Vella is a veteran of the local music scene, he often seeks refuge in movies, songwriting and petty online controversies. He also likes to eat. A lot. Perhaps even more than watching movies or penning the odd song for his band ‘Brikkuni’. Mario’s lifelong ambition is ”striking the perfect balance between obnoxious and lovable’’.

Martin Clark is a Scottish film maker and bon vivant. He is one half of Connolly Clark Films; whose films have been screened at most prestigious film festivals world wide, picking awards and sometimes having a few drinks.
