Filmmakers aged 16 to 22 are encouraged to be advocates for actions on climate change through their craft.

The festival’s theme “Adapting For a Sustainable Future” is under OML Center’s Balangay project. The said project aims to record climate change in a Filipino context and how it has affected the Filipinos’ identity and culture.

Interested participants will need a team with a maximum of ten members and can register at this link until July 31, 2020: bit.ly/KFFSignUpSheet.

Before entering a film, the participants will be attending a series of free online seminar-workshops about climate change.

The team with the best film from the top 10 finalists will receive a P50,000 cash prize while the 1st runner-up and 2nd runner-up will receive P30,000 and P20,000 respectively. The remaining seven will receive P5,000.
