Following the 30th edition of the Festival REGARD, a key event for short films in North America, the Youth Media Alliance is proud to have partnered on this landmark anniversary edition.

At the close of the festival, the very first recipient of the Best Quebec Youth Film Award at REGARD 2026 is:

C’est ma sœur, directed by Zoé Pelchat, produced by Papillon Films, and distributed by Travelling Distribution.

In addition to this recognition, the winning film will gain further visibility as it is automatically selected as a finalist for the 2026 Awards of Excellence presented by the Youth Media Alliance, to be held in Montreal on May 26.

Congratulations to the entire film team on this honour, as well as to all the artists and craftspeople who contributed to making this 30th edition of the Festival REGARD such a resounding success.
