Virgin Media Shorts 2011: It's a wrap!

The UK's biggest short film competition has ended in fine style once more. Congratulations to Jason Wingard, crowned Grand Prize winner with 2.20. The story of a man living on borrowed time, 2:20 won over our judging panel (led by John Hurt) and won Jason £30,000 to fund his next film to be made hand in hand with the BFI. We can't wait to see the result.

  • Grand Prize – 2:20, Jason Wingard
