Being part of the festival’s official jury: an immersive experience that allows you to experience cinema from the inside.

The Youth Jury for the 71st edition of Seminci is made up of nine young people aged between 18 and 30, selected through a process coordinated with the Valladolid Local Youth Council*.

With backgrounds linked to Valladolid, Salamanca, Madrid, Málaga and even Ecuador and Norway, its members bring together different educational backgrounds and perspectives, united by a shared interest in cinema. During the festival, they have the opportunity to discover new cinematic works, exchange views and play an active role in evaluating the films.

The members are responsible for awarding three prizes: the Youth Jury Prize – Official Selection, the Youth Jury Prize – Punto de Encuentro and the Youth Jury Prize – Short Films.
