XII International Short Film Festival "VISION" was first launched in Siberia (Russia) in 2007.
The Festival aims to demonstrate official selection films in three nominations: fiction film, documentary,animation; and includes an award ceremony and demonstration of films out of selection.
The Festival also hosts workshops by movie critics and directors, and meetings with creative professionals.
One of the wonderful traditions of the "VISION" Festival is the audience vote. Alongside with the professional jury, the audience gets to choose the best film by filling questionnaires.
The best film chosen by the audience is awarded a special prize.
The slogan of the Festival, "Share your Vision of the world", calls upon every young director to visualise his or her view on the world and share it with the audience. Each work is unique and addresses a certain category of viewers. It helps make the Festival programme diverse and versatile.
