“An
actor is something less than a man, while an actress is something more than a
woman,” actor Richard Burton is quoted as saying. The best female performance
award at the BHFF is presented to an actress who is capable of summoning a wide
range of emotions, has taken risks and stretched the dimensions of her
character, and is in command of the necessary skills to invoke a captivating
performance," says the BHFF fesitval website, "We select the winner of this
award based on these principles." While Best Short Film is selected judged on a
captivating story, well-rounded characters, and aesthetic values unique to the
medium. The BHFF Jury makes its selection for this award by selecting a short
film that fits these factors.
