The Leo Award is DaVinci International Film Festival’s Best of Fest and most prized commendation. Vitruvian Selections go on to compete for this award in their respect categories (Feature, Short, Documentary, Animation, and Screenplay) at our showcase event annually. The Leo Award is a 17-pound, museum-grade, bust statue of Leonardo da Vinci himself with a customized engraved brass plate honoring our winners. **DIFF ’23 will be introducing an all-new Leo Award.


Vitruvian Selection™ is DaVinci International Film Festival’s version of “Official Selection”. Each quarter DIFF’s Jury and Board of Directors qualify one (1) Vitruvian Selection in narrative, documentary, animation, and screenplay categories. These Selections remain in competition for The Leo Award at our live events annually. *DIFF discontinued the production of Vitruvian Selections trophies in 2019.

The Selection Certificate is a HIGH RESOLUTION, print-ready digital file that is customized for each filmmaker and/or screenwriter, and awarded to all Vitruvian Selections and Leo Award winners along with their winner laurels.
