About the festival
The 2026 international programme does not rank its professional-jury selections. Fifteen AI-pure or hybrid works receive screening grants, while official audience voting determines one separate audience award.
Busan's festival is scheduled for 3–5 December 2026, with selection and audience-award activity later in the year.
Entry criteria

Judging
- Overall quality
- Degree and relevance of AI use
A professional film-and-AI jury selects fifteen works for a non-competitive screening programme, with no jury ranking. Festival audiences separately vote for an Audience Award.
