Here is this year's NDA jury

In the New Directors Award (NDA), Kosmorama has dedicated its competition program to the filmmakers of the future, the new voices in the great global film world that we believe will make a strong mark in the years to come.

In the NDA film program it is not only the films that have to be good, the directors also need to show that they have that little extra as a storyteller or film artist.

The criterion is that they cannot have made more than three full length feature films before. Kosmorama's programming team have together nominated the ten films that are fighting over the reward.

This year jury consist of:
