The Rome Prisma Film Awards is the #1 most reviewed film festival in Europe among the nearly three thousand currently running on FilmFreeway. In a time where the conflict between quality and quantity is deeply reshaping also the filmmaking panorama, we monthly select and award independent movies from all around the world, of any nationality, genre and budget, proposing a competition and live film screenings that showcase the most impressive and meaningful among them, reuniting a lively community of filmmakers in Rome.
Live screenings
Every four months, we screen a selection of the best films of our festivals at Cinema Farnese Arthouse, one of the oldest and most prestigious cinemas in Campo de’ Fiori, Rome. Join us live and meet the staff and fellow filmmakers.
The competition
Our contest starts from the Monthly Picks and evolves into an articulated, year-long adventure that ends in the Annual Awards Ceremony. Here you can explore the archive of the past Rome Prisma Film Awards editions and discover the movies that made it to its final stages.
This is an incredible Festival full of passion for art and cinema. It has been such an honor to me be part of it. Great communication, hospitality and thanks for the support for my feature script A SHOT FOR FREDOOM, I will subscribe my future script for sure. Big hug Giuseppe
Highly recommend. Even though my film did not fare beyond the official selection, I highly appreciate the timely communication and professionalism shown by the organisers. Thank you.
As the script writer, music supervisor and director of Mambo |Man, I would like to thank you your organization for this amazing festival. It is not easy for anybody under the present circumstances but your approach and dedication makes it easier for all of us to cope. Beautifully organized and communication could not be better. We are thrilled and appreciate your consideration which at the age of 70 gives me inspiration to start on my second film! Thanks to all of you.
Rome Independent Prisma Awards is a fun Event. The Festival offers online screenings during their Award presentation, so you watch a film and see nominated results... a perfect way to enjoy the work of your fellow artists! All monthly winners go into a "YEAR'S BEST" competition... A MUST ENTER!!!
Great communication. Really enjoyed the review they wrote for my film. Will be submitting more of my films to this festival in the near future.
Thanks for all your work, this is an important festival in Italy and we are so proud of this network.
Excited to have made Official Selection into Rome Independent Prisma Awards for our student short "Baby In The Basement." after winning Best Short Screenplay the year before! Thank you for the opportunity to join all the other wonderful films being shown!
You can always tell a great awards show by the amount of effort they place in their laurels... Prisma laurels are beautiful. It is a well run and prestigious event. It is one of the "musts" when it comes to the global awards / festivals and an Honor to have LEGENDS a part of it.
I spent the better part of my life not winning. We can't all be winners, that's just how things go. My screenplay did win though, and now I'm walking, talking, in the flesh winner! I love yall for that. Proud of these winning laurels I am, and I will absolutely look forward to future Prisma competitions and events. Cheers for a great festival!
Thank you for choosing my feature film “The Debt Of Maximillian” to be a part of your awards competition. I’m grateful to have received an award as finalist for Best Feature Film. This is a great festival, organized and friendly. I look forward to submitting future films to this wonderful festival again!
Thanks Rome Independent Prisma Awards. This is the first time my film selected in Rome! I am so happy! This is a good festival. Love it.
We feel very lucky to have experienced the first festival period of our film together with you. Thank you very much for letting us experience how beautiful and exciting this process is. I am sure we will experience more festival excitement together. We will never forget this process and we will always tell all our friends. You already have a lot of fans from Turkey. I hope we will experience this excitement again in our next film project. As Night Falls, the film crew and myself were very pleased with this process, and the Rome Independent Prisma Awards will be our home for many of our future projects.
UNITING PEOPLE. THROUGH FILMS. IN THE VERY HEART OF ROME.
Submissions are open.
