The VIVA DOC International Student Documentary Competition is a celebration of student filmmakers from around the world. Students from recognized institutions of higher education with instruction in filmmaking at the undergraduate or graduate level are invited to submit documentaries which have been completed as course work. The work can be originated in any format, style and on any subject, with a maximum length of 30 minutes. Entries must fit into one of the five categories of the competition. Films are pre-selected by a panel of Columbia College documentary faculty and graduate documentary students.
