Méliès d'Or

MÉLIÈS D'ARGENT ® Award for Best European Motion Picture from the Fantasy Genre.
At each of the E.F.F.F.F.’s member Festivals, a jury of national movie professionals awards a Méliès d'Argent ® to a European film from the program. Each festival is free to select the movies to compete. However, this selection must meet the criteria established by the Federation.
The criteria for a film to be considered European are: 
*If the director is not European, the production must be entirely European (in no case will a co-production with a non-European country be accepted, regardless of how minor it is
*If the director is European, a co-production with a non-European country is acceptable (1 or 2
European countries and 1 non-European country.  
*The term "European" is understood in a broad sense, meaning geographical Europe.
*The same film may be selected at various E.F.F.F.F festivals. However, a film receiving an award at one of the festivals is automatically excluded from competition at the other member festivals (a film can only be awarded one Méliès d'Argent ®).

MÉLIÈS D'OR ®. Grand Award for Best European Motion Picture from the Fantasy Genre.

Each year, an international jury made up of professionals from the movie world, assembles to present the MÉLIÈS D'OR ® award. Competing for this award are this year’s different MÉLIÈS D'ARGENT ® award-winning films. Since 2008 Sitges has become the venue for the presentation of this award.

The deliberation is combined with a public presentation gala, promoted by all the participants in the award-winning films. Representatives of each film (directors, actors, producers, etc.) are invited to this presentation. The gala concludes with the official presentation of the MÉLIÈS D'OR ® award, following an agenda to be determined by the hosting festival.

The results of the deliberation and the title of the award-winning film are released to the media of the different countries involved. The objective is to obtain the widest coverage possible of the results.

In the following year’s program, each member of the Federation will include at least one of the award-winning films that has not been presented in its competition, preferably the winner of the MÉLIÈS D'OR ® award. The Federation then promotes the award-winning films throughout the entire year following the winning of the prizes (leaflets, catalog, etc…).
