Announcement

We have reason to believe that there have been technical irregularities in the voting system which therefore preclude us from attaining voter accuracy in certain public votes. In view of these irregularities and to ensure fairness in our short-listing process, and in consultation with The World Bank's Legal Department and Office of Ethics and Business Conduct, we have taken action to ensure that these irregularities do not play a role in determining the number of short-listed films submitted to the independent panel of judges. This action has been taken in accordance with Sections 13 and 14 of the Rules and Guidelines for the contest.

We thank you in advance for your understanding and patience.
