Discover the jury of the VI. Cinemira Children & Youth Film Pitch Forum, who will once again help select the most exciting film projects for young audiences! The forum is a unique professional meeting point where young talents and experienced filmmakers present their ideas to create authentic and fresh stories for the audience of the future.

In the Junior Pitch section, where filmmakers under nineteen can share their own film ideas, the professional jury includes acclaimed experts such as Flóra Chilton, film director and winner of the 2024 Cinemira Pitch Forum; András Bödör, Head of Brand and Communication Strategy at Magyar Telekom; and Dávid Lafka, Development Producer at Digic Studio.

In the Cinemira Children’s and Youth Film Pitch section, professional adult screenwriters and directors present their film projects, evaluated by both a professional and a student jury. The professional jury members include Judit Romwalter, producer and head of SPARKS; Katalin Bakos, editor, director, and screenwriter, member of the National Film Institute’s Television Decision Committee; Péter Svéd, Executive Producer and Head of Production at Digic Studio; and Tamás Kollarik, member of the National Film Institute’s Television Decision Committee. They are joined by László Nyikos, founder and head of Derengő Animation Studio.

The student jury consists of Gergő Czobi, Réka Kis, Milán Zikkert, Málna Füredi, Levente Nagy, Ábel Sipos, Márton Körmendi, Molli Domokos, and Félix Lengyel.

Alongside the professional jury, a children’s jury and the audience will also vote, ensuring a truly diverse decision on who will take home this year’s Golden Squirrel Award.
