The Yorkton Film Festival juries have completed the first round of selections for the 2021 Golden Sheaf Awards.
“We had a large number of submissions again this year, which made reviewing all the films no easy task for our juries,” said YFF Executive Director Randy Goulden. “But our juries have completed their work and have selected the nominees who will be going forward for this year’s Golden Sheaf Awards.”
Over the last 74 years, the Yorkton Film Festival has become the premiere event for Canadian filmmakers to showcase their work, with the most rigorous adjudication process of any festival.
“Our thanks to these dedicated industry professionals for volunteering their time and expertise in making this year’s Golden Sheaf Awards, and every Golden Sheaf Awards, possible,” Ms. Goulden stated.
The festival has nominees in 16 main categories, along with 6 accompanying categories, which concludes the first-round selections. The second round, at which craft nominees and special awards winners will be selected, will start shortly.
A listing of the 2021 first round nominees is available on the festival website, www.yorktonfilm.com
