Titus & Mirabella, a romantic comedy directed by Melania Crisan, won the Best Short Comedy award at the 40th edition of the Breckenridge Film Festival in Colorado, the US. The event took place between September 16 and September 19.

Started in 1981, the Breck Film Festival is one of the oldest festivals in the United States. It was ranked as a Top 20 Film Festival by USA Today.

The film had its premiere in 2020 and has since gathered several major awards at international film festivals. It was filmed in 2016 in the city of Passau in Germany and benefited from sponsorships from various companies in the city and the University of Passau. Due to lack of funds, post-production was suspended for two years to be resumed in 2019 and completed in 2020.

Shorts TV distributes Titus & Mirabella on TV channels in the United States and Europe.
