“Furia”, double winner at the 2025 SGAE Nova Autoria Awards

The short film “Furia”, directed by Fran Moreno Blanco and Santi Pujol, students at ESCAC, has received the Best Direction and Best Original Screenplay awards at the 2025 SGAE Nova Autoria Awards, as part of the Noves Visions section of the Sitges International Fantastic Film Festival.

The jury, made up of prominent figures from the audiovisual industry, wanted to recognise the emerging talent of these two young filmmakers. In the words of Belén Funes, a jury member:

“For their ability to direct a young actor with poise and coherence. For being able, with few elements, to build a story that transcends the limits of the short film itself and lives beyond the audiovisual work. We award this SGAE Nova Autoria prize to two filmmakers whose future work we look forward to seeing, so that we can contemplate the family universe with tenderness and love.”
