Since 1992, the international film organizations of the Protestant and Catholic Churches – INTERFILM and SIGNIS – have been represented by the Ecumenical Jury. It awards its main prize to a film entered in the Competition. It awards two other prizes of 2.500 Euro to a film from the Panorama (courtesy of the German Bishops Conference) and Forum (courtesy of the Council of the Evangelical Church in Germany) respectively. The prizes go to directors who have displayed genuine artistic talent and succeeded in portraying actions or human experiences that comply with the Gospels or sensitize viewers to spiritual, human or social values.
