Yes, but the prize will be split.
As the writer you retain all copyright and other intellectual property rights in your script at all times. You can also withdraw from the Prize at any time.
The facilitators and management of the Ilfeld Prize reserves the right to disqualify any candidate at their discretion if continuing their participation would contradict the philanthropic spirit of the prize.
