The photographic series had to consist of a minimum of 3 and maximum of 6 images, while videos had to be up to 90 seconds long, and each had to have been created after 2000. 10-10 submissions from each category were chosen by the jury and are now presented in a group exhibition at the Mai Manó House Bookshop and Gallery.

Great interest is indicated by – according to statistics – how submissions were entered by every hour for a month from 40 countries of the world. In the photo category, there were 701 submissions, while in the video category, 39 videos were entered.
Regarding geographical distribution, including Hungary, entries were sent in from 40 countries, from Algeria and the United States of American through Brazil, Egypt, India, Iran, Poland and Nepal to New Zealand and Vietnam.
