The short films at IndieJúnior Porto take part in a competition with the chance of winning three prizes.

The winner of the Prémio do Público do IndieJúnior is chosen by the entire festival audience. The votes made on the ballot paper at the end of the different sessions will be the deciding factor in this award.

The Prémio Impacto is presented by the Rectory of the University of Porto. The aim of this prize is to reward a film for its thematic importance, aesthetic care and creativity. It is awarded by a jury made up of members of the university and young secondary school students.

The Prémio APEI (Association of Early Childhood Education Professionals) is a new award created this year. This award aims to highlight a film from the competition aimed at early childhood.
