Select Awards


PictureThe Abbott Award for Condor Jam
THE ABBOT AWARD® is given to film makers who exemplify maverick film making, by creating stunning and poignant cinema. These films, often hilarious or tragically absurd, are made without the benefits of large budgets and technological wizardry. These film makers share the spirit and artistic energy of Venice's founding father Abbot Kinney. In honoring these film makers who adhere to their singular vision, we honor our Venetian benefactor, Abbot Kinney. 

All films that screen at the festival, with the exception of Spotlight Screenings, are in competition for an Abbot®. Short films as well as features qualify for Audience Choice and Most Excellent Abbot Awards®. The Local Maverick Spotlight Abbot Award® is given to a local established film maker who creates unforgettable celluloid and kick ass flicks.
