FUTUREWAVE JURY
What is a film jury? At film festivals around the world, accomplished filmmakers and other film professionals are selected to watch a series of films and award one as the best film in the program. At SIFF 2025, high school youth will be selected to award the Wavemaker Award for Best Futurewave Feature. SIFF’s Futurewave program invites teen film-lovers to the cinema for feature films that exemplify thrilling global cinema and have been selected specifically with them in mind.
