Cannes 2025: the awards

So, what's next after such an exciting Cannes Film Festival? To really soak in all the great memories this 78th edition brought us, here's a quick recap of the awards our amazing TFL community members took home!

Cannes 2025: the awards

Un Certain Regard:

The prestigious Un Certain Regard Award has been assigned to our TFL film THE MYSTERIOUS GAZE OF THE FLAMINGO by the Chilean director Diego Céspedes.
The film has been developed back in 2020 within the FeatureLab class - winning also the Co-Production Award (€ 50,000) thanks to the support of Creative Europe MEDIA.

A round of applause also goes to our alumnus Simón Mesa Soto – ScriptLab 2017 participant, who won the Jury Prize with A Poet.
 

Official Competition:
The Jury Prize went to Sirât directed by the TFL alumnus Oliver Laxe (ex aequo with Sound of Falling by Mascha Schilinski). Laxe joined the Lab in 2011 with its first film Mimosas.


Semaine de la Critique:
The winners of the SACD Award are Guillermo Galoe and Victor Alonso-Berbel, authors of SLEEPLESS CITY. The film, directed by Galoe, joined ScriptLab in 2020.

 
Seeing your stories come to life year after year makes us more than proud.
Huge congratulations to you all!
