A raÃz de los 2 cortometrajes españoles preseleccionados para los Oscars 2009, Alumbramiento y Perpetuum Mobile, he buscado en la web de la Academia Americana de Cine y he encontrado la lista de los Festivales y Premios y sus categorÃas que sirven para realizar estas preselecciones.
Para optar al Oscar han de haber ganado alguno de los premios que aparecen en la lista. En el caso de Alumbramiento le habrá bastado con ser el Mejor Cortometraje Europeo y a Perpetuum Mobile ganar en el Festival de Cartagena (Colombia), por ejemplo.
En España cuentan para ello los Goya (acción real y animación) y los Festivales de Bilbao, Huesca y Gijón.
Esta es la lista completa de festivales:
