Trophy Trees

Since 2023, VIENNA SHORTS no longer presents its award winners with trophies, but instead dedicates freshly planted trees in Vienna to them. Via a QR code on the attached plaque, the respective short film can be streamed on a smartphone in close proximity to the tree. This creates a film and tree walk through the city over the years.

In cooperation with the Municipal Department Parks and Gardens (MA 42) and the City’s Forestry Office (MA 49), supported by the Vienna Film Commission (VFC).
