Kick-off for the LUX Film Prize in Venice
Vienna (OTS/SK) – The Vice-President of the EU Parliament, SPÖ MP Evelyn Regner, is responsible for the LUX Film Prize of the EU Parliament as patron and announced the five nominees for the year 2024 at the Venice Film Festival today. She says about the nominated films : “Five fantastic films from all corners of the EU made it into the selection again this year. There are also two films by female filmmakers, which makes me particularly happy. The films ‘20,000 Species of bees’, ‘The Teachers Lounge’, ‘Fallen Leaves’, ‘On The Adamant’ and ‘Smoke Sauna Sisterhood’ are not only entertaining, but also deal with enormously exciting topics that concern and concern us all. They tell stories about courage, identity, mental illness, addiction and solidarity among women and thus point to something new: film is political!” ****
Regner adds: “Personally, I am very grateful to be part of the LUX Film Prize again this year and to be able to support this inspiring project. The LUX Film Prize is an important platform and wonderful initiative to bring culture and politics together and to promote this exchange as the EU Parliament. I can only encourage you to check out these cinematic masterpieces and vote for your favorite too. Because all EU citizens have a say in their choice!” (Conclusion) ls
