Piccolo America has opened submissions for the second edition of Corto Condorello, its premier short film festival. Filmmakers can enter their work through November 6 for consideration by a jury led by Nicolas Winding Refn, who serves as jury president for the event.
The festival offers a significant distribution opportunity: the winning short film will secure a distribution deal with MUBI, the global streaming platform and distributor. This partnership provides a direct pathway from festival selection to international audience reach for the selected filmmaker.
Corto Condorello continues to establish itself as a notable launchpad for short-form cinema, combining high-profile jury leadership with tangible distribution outcomes. The November 6 deadline gives filmmakers several weeks to prepare and submit their entries for the 2026 edition.
