Spiritus Short Film Prize Screening and Awards
Join us for the screening of 10 shortlisted films from the Spiritus Short Film Prize, followed by the awards presentation and light refreshments.

The Spiritus Short Film Prize is an initiative of the Australian Centre for Christianity and Culture as part of its commitment to promote the lively interaction between the arts, sciences and culture; one of the Four Pillars of the Centre’s work and mission. The Centre believes that there is wisdom to be found in such an interaction which can contribute to a vision of hope and the common good for Australia. The Centre embraces and welcomes interfaith discussion and understanding from the multi-faith community.

The term Spiritus is Latin for spirit or breathing. It’s about ‘raising audience consciousness of the transcendent dimension of life and/or portraying spiritual values’.

Award Criteria

• High artistic quality
• Wisdom for the common good
• Human and planetary flourishing
• Universal impact
• Inventive expression

Judges

• Genevieve Jacobs (ACC&C Board Member)
• Maximo Gowland (Argentine Ambassador)
• Miriam Pickard (Drama teacher and film maker)
• Greg Battye (retired Professor University of Canberra)
