Hey Finland

Take part in the biggest film festival for young filmmakers in the Nordic region!

Finnish film has always provideed important contributions to the world cinema, most notebly by the great Aki Kaurismäki, but lately we have also seen an increasing number of new exciting voices from the “Land of a Thousand Lakes”.

We would love to showcase the Finnish filmmakers of tomorrow to an international audience at Amandus – Lillehammer International Student Film Festival, and invites all young filmmakers and film students from Finland to submit their work to one of our competitions.

Amandus – Lillehammer International Student Film Festival is the greatest student film competition in the Nordic region. Amandus is a place where film enthusiasm grows, and where nordic film students, schools and the film industry can be inspired, challenge each other, and make new connections across the borders. We appreciate the artistic visions of our future film makers, as art, expressions and entertainment.

We invite all film students from Denmark, Iceland, Sweden, Finland and Norway to enter your films in our competitions before January 10. Enter your film here!
