For example: Wasabi could be a character in the short film. A physical tube of Wasabi may appear in the short film. The film might be focused on something that is hot like Wasabi.

Before submitting your film you will need to sign off on the terms and conditions which can be downloaded here. This competition is about celebrating young emerging filmmakers and recognising great local work.
