The annual SIMA AWARDS honor eye-opening impact cinema that exemplifies excellence in its potential to inspire social change. Each year, films are selected from over 140 countries around the world, competing for awards, cash prizes, industry accolades, media features, distribution opportunities, and entry into SIMA’s signature film programs. Our international Film Programs: SIMAx, SIMA Classroom and SIMA VOD, maximize the impact and exposure of the best films from our annual awards. Through unique partnerships and collaborations with conscious individuals, organizations and educational institutions, we host year-round screening events that cultivate awareness and engagement from the grassroots to the governmental level.
