This year Pink Apple will grant the Pink Apple Festival Award for the first time in history. This cash prize of 3000 Swiss Francs will also be awarded to a filmmaker for his or her complete oeuvre in coming years. This year’s prize goes to Lionel Baier from the French speaking region of Switzerland.
The short film contest is a few years older (2001). The Pink Apple Short Film Award is a prize of 2000 Swiss Francs and is awarded by a jury of film professionals.
The festival audience awards the best documentary and the best feature with the Pink Apple Audience Award (in Zurich).
