Go Short accepts all genres in short films for its competition programs, divided in the genres animation, documentary, fiction and experimental/artfilm.

All the Dutch short films will be eligible for the Go Short award for the best Dutch short. All student films will be eligible for the Encouragement award for the best European student short. Besides all these awards per competition, all films will also be in the running for the Go Short audience award which will be chosen by the audience during the Go Short festival.
