Klimafilmpreis

The Climate Clips Awards

Since 2008, the Nagelschneider Foundation, in cooperation with Münchner Filmfestwochen GmbH and Brigitte Bruns, has presented the Climate Clip Award to the short film that best deals with the topic of climate change and sustainable energy at the Munich International Festival of Films Schools.

This award is open to all film school students around the world and is held annually. The Climate Clip Award includes €5000 prize money.

We look forward to a large number of participants from all parts of the world in order for us to better understand what climate change and sustainable energy mean, especially to people in countries such as Brazil, the Ukraine, South Africa and China.

2010 Climate Clip Award: Technologies

The clip uses irony and creative editing in contrasting negative statements by erstwhile opponents of sustainable energy with images and positive statistics that prove just how wrong they were. The jury found it concise and exceptionally persuasive.
