This year the 26th European Film Awards will go back to Berlin and will take place on December 7th. The most interesting and often must be watch longlist of European films is scheduled to be unveiled in “the beginning of September” so I assume that will be soon.
As always the nominations will be announced on November 9th at the Seville European Film Festival. This is the schedule for the coming months but today the list of nominated films for the People’s Choice Award was announced and there are some great films in it, still I’m totally biased towards Searching for Sugar Man a doc that absolutely gets my vote, yay!
IF you vote you will get a chance to win a trip to the awards in Berlin. Good Luck!
These are the 11 nominated films:
Anna Karenina, Joe Wright, UK
Los Amantes Pasajeros (I’m So Excited!), Pedro Almodóvar, Spain
