Here under is a summary of the contest's regulations:

Organiser
The non-profit association Cineuropa, running the website http://www.cineuropa.org/, here under called "the organising company", registered in the Belgian Monitor under the reference code 882082366 and based at Avenue Besme 84 - 1190 Brussels - Belgium, organises between April 1 and 25, 2008, a game-contest entitled "Become a Cineuropean".

Principle of the contest
The participants will have to answer a questionnaire of 10 questions dealing with the Cannes Film Festival and European cinema. Each good answer will give one point. The results are kept and saved digitally during the period of the contest. A subsidiary question will decide between the potential ex-aequos. In case of draw, a toss for the winner will be organised by Cineuropa's team.
Participants will also have to write in English half a page about a European film (one from Cineuropa's film database) as if they were writing on their own blog.

Object of the contest
The aim of the contest is to allow ONE European film lover to cover the Cannes Film Festival and feed a blog on http://www.cineuropa.org/ during the festival. In this blog only written in English, the winner will have to write his or her opinions about the European films he or she will have seen and give his or her impressions about the festival.

Cineuropa.org will arrange the accommodation of the winner during the festival. Cineuropa will also cover his or her food and transport expenses in the city of the festival with a daily fee. Cineuropa will have accredited the winner in the festival so that he or she can see as many European films as possible. If no agreement is reached between the festival and Cineuropa, the contest will have no object and will therefore be cancelled.

The transport costs between the winner's hometown and the festival's place will be at the winner's own expenses as well as all the personal expenses of the winner during the festival.
