Anna

Israeli filmmaker wins best student film at Cannes

Or Sinai, graduate of the Sam Spiegel Film and Television School in Jerusalem, won first place in the student short film category in Cannes for her short film Anna.

Anna, a short film by Israeli director Or Sinai, took home first place in the student competition at Cannes Film Festival on Friday.

 

 

The 24-minute-long film was shown at the Cinéfondation, and beat out 17 other finalists. Sinai's win is a considerable achievement, seeing as there were no less than 2,350 other student films from 277 film schools from around the world in the competition.
