Overview
Cyprus Comic Con is a non-profit organisation that celebrates comic book-influenced art and culture in Cyprus. One of the many parts of the con is an in-house film festival specializing in screening genre short films (sci-fi,comedy, animation, fantasy, fan films, etc) from local and international filmmakers in a highly competitive field of amazing films, it is our job to pick the cream of the crop for our festival. Amazing customed trophies will be provided to the film festival winners as well. Cyprus Comic Con is a convention that brings over 30,000 people attending it over the weekend! A crowd of fresh eyes eager to explore and potentially see your film screened! Note: If you got a notification for your film getting a Semi-Finalist or Finalist status, that means you're in the running for an official selection and have passed the 1st or 2nd round of the selection process and waiting for final selection update.

What an incredible opportunity to have had our film Triggered 2.0 featured at the 2024 Cyprus Comic Con among a short list of standout Fan Films. We truly appreciate sharing our work and premiering it in Cyprus Greece and hope the fans and attendees enjoyed the roller coaster ride experience!
