Ward Sixty6, a Maltese film produced by Cathleen Tanti and Angelique Muller, has won the 4th edition of the Mediterranean Short Film Festival 2006 which was held in Tangier, Morocco.

The Mediterranean Short Film Festival 2006 of Tangier was held under the patronage of King Mohammed VI. The judging panel was headed by a number of internationally acclaimed film directors who viewed the film on Friday and selected the Maltese entry from among 36 other short films in competition from around the Mediterranean.

The audience included well known actors, producers, and directors from the Moroccan film and media Industry.

Running for a length of 14 minutes, Ward Sixty6 was produced by the duo in March 2005, and featured local actors like Miriam Galea and Slavko Vukanovic.

Aleksandar Bundalo, the sound engineer on the film set up marvelously the eerie sounds of Spooky Monkey and Tsezar along with the narration of local actress Marie-Claire Camilleri.

The same film was also awarded the Best Maltese Entry in The Golden Knight Film Festival in November 2005, and was also screened in Girls On Film - Female Artists’ Festival in March 2006 in Manchester.

Ward Sixty6 will also be screened later on this year in the Kurtz Film Festival in Germany.
