<p>So far five winning films from last year&#8217;s Someday Challenge have received nominations in international film festivals.</p>
<p>The Someday Challenge asks young New Zealanders aged up to 24 to make short sustainability-related films of any genre, filmed with any camera and any length up to five minutes.</p>
<p>Among the prizes for the film chosen as The Body Shop Standout Winner is a mentorship with Te Radar and film-maker Peter Bell.</p>
<p>The entry deadline for the film challenge is September 11.<br />Twenty winning films will be selected by judges from media, education, government and business. The film-maker or team behind each winning film will receive their prizes at The Someday Awards ceremony at Auckland&#8217;s Aotea Centre in December.</p>
<p>The prize package for each winning film includes a commitment that the film will be entered into at least one international film festival in 2016.</p>
