One Screen is part of The One Club for Creativity and now in its seventh year, One Screen focuses on all forms and aspects of short films — commercials, music videos, short narratives, spec work, passion projects, movie poster design, credits, etc. — and celebrates the best of the film and ad industries with no limitation and total artistic freedom, all on one screen.

Entries were received this year from 45 countries and judged by a 79-person jury of leading film directors, producers, ad agency creatives and heads of production companies.

"Now in its seventh year, One Screen has become a showcase for the passion projects of accomplished filmmakers, as well as a high-visibility forum to recognise promising young talent," said Jonathan Jirjis, executive producer at One Screen and The One Club.

We’re thrilled with the range and quality of work submitted this year and congratulate all of our 2019 winners.
