...UNLOCKING DIALOGUE
12 years ago, the LUX FILM PRIZE began to explore new ways of crossing borders, overcoming barriers and
building bridges between people from different cultural and national backgrounds. Cinema, as a cultural
mass medium, harnesses the emotional power of film to bring together the diversity of Europe and evokes
the multifaceted, ever-changing nature of our European identity.
Culture and film, as a cultural mass medium, are keys to unlocking dialogue between communities and
overcoming these barriers. They are ideal tools to address stereotypes and prejudices, pave the way for
intercultural dialogue and respond to the challenges facing our societies.
This is exactly what the LUX FILM PRIZE is all about.
With the LUX FILM PRIZE catalogue, we want to invite you to discover more than 100 important, poignant
masterpieces that will take you on a journey through Europe and beyond. Look at your neighbour through the
lens of emerging or already well-established directors.
Use films to touch the hearts of European citizens and talk about the importance of being united in our diversity.
See Europe in a different light.
FOREWORD
https://www.floowie.com/en/read/2019-lfp-catalogue-webfile/8
Most European films are only shown in the country where they were made and are rarely distributed across
borders. The contrast is even bigger when we see that more than 60% of films released are European, but these
are only watched by one third of the cinema audience.
In this context, the European Parliament created the LUX FILM PRIZE in 2007. It has enhanced both the
distribution of quality European films and the European debate.
The 10 films in the LUX FILM PRIZE Official Selection unveiled at the Karlovy Vary Film Festival are the showcase
ofEuropeancinema.Inparticular,theselectionofthe3finalfilmsintheLUXFILMPRIZECompetition,announced
attheVeniceDays,iscloselyfollowedbythefilmindustry.TheirdistributionisfacilitatedbyParliament´ssupport
with subtitling in the 24 official languages and the DCP [Digital Cinema Package] production per country.
Moreover, the LUX FILM PRIZE winner is also adapted for the visually and hearing impaired, thus enlarging its
audience and market potential.
The LUX FILM PRIZE films are also disseminated via the field of education. Partners from different areas take
advantage of the high quality film catalogue and also of the educational kits that are produced in all the Official
EU languages for each competing film since 2012.
The LUX FILM PRIZE filmography offers a wide variety of high quality films that echo the European Parliament´s
agenda at legislative level. These films portraying life in Europe are a powerful communication tool to address
the concerns of citizens from an array of angles, be it human, passionate, expert, realistic or political.
LUX FILM PRIZE
https://www.floowie.com/en/read/2019-lfp-catalogue-webfile/9
The LUX FILM DAYS are a unique cultural experience which transcends borders. From October until
December, the LUX FILM DAYS create a temporary European Public Space in which European cinema lovers
can watch and share 3 remarkable films, in the 28 Member States and in the 24 official European languages.
The screenings usually take place in cooperation with film festivals, cinematheques and theatres. They are
also often national previews. The three competing films are screened more than 220 times across Europe,
accompanied by educational kits in the corresponding languages.
Herein lies the uniqueness of the European Parliament’s initiative. The LUX FILM DAYS is an experience
that can be shared across Europe no matter the language spoken. It creates a platform for belonging to a
European public space, by discussing the same topic in the same place and at the same time.
As part of the wider reflection, the audience is invited to express and share their views with other
Europeans and to vote for their favourite film on luxprize.eu or on LUX FILM PRIZE Facebook page, awarding
an AUDIENCE MENTION.

In Stip, a small town in North Macedonia, every January the local priest throws a wooden
cross into the river and hundreds of men dive after it. Good fortune and prosperity are
guaranteed to the man who retrieves it. This time, Petrunya dives into the water on a whim
and manages to grab the cross before the others. Her competitors are furious - how dare a
woman take part in their ritual? All hell breaks loose, but Petrunya holds her ground. She
won her cross and will not give it up.

Manuel López-Vidal is a beloved politician in his region: he enjoys a good social position,
has a loving family, friends everywhere and plenty of natural charisma. He is also a corrupt
man who has been enriching himself with public funds for years. After attempting to cover
up for an associate, Manuel is left exposed. To his surprise, the Party’s members seek to
place the blame for the entire plot on his shoulders. But he will not surrender. How far is a
person willing to go in order to hold on to power?

COMMITTEES CULT, LIBE
Many years ago, the lives of three Catholic priests were joined by tragic events. Now, on every
anniversary of the catastrophe they endured, the three meet in order to celebrate the fact
of their survival. Their everyday lives are very different. Lisowski (Jacek Braciak) is a big-city
curia employee, making a spectacular career with one eye on a lucrative Vatican position. His
problem is that his ambitions are being thwarted by Archbishop Mordowicz (Janusz Gajos), a
luxury-steeped church big shot, freely using his political clout to build Poland’s largest new
sanctuary. The second priest, Trybus (Robert Więckiewicz) is a coun-tryside rector. Fulfilling
his calling in a place of dire poverty, he becomes more and more prone to human failings.
And things don’t look any brighter to Father Kukuła (Arkadiusz Jakubik), who — despite his
passionate faith — keeps losing his parish’s trust practically on a daily basis. Once a young
altar boy in Kukuła’s parish falls victim to sexual abuse, the events accelerate at a frightening
pace and push all characters to the very limit. Not be-fore long, the stories of the three priests
reunite once again, and the events taking place will affect the lives of everyone involved.

I DOULEIA TIS
Panayiota, a 37 year old illiterate housewife, leads a quiet life with her husband and their
children in a modest neighbourhood in Athens, Greece. To cope with the recession that has
been affecting her family for some time, Panayiota for the first time in her life finds a job as
a cleaner in a shopping mall. Despite the ruthlessness of her work-environment, Panayiota
breaks free from domestic monotony and gradually gains the respect she never had from
her family. When a series of layoffs starts, she will have to face again her personal dead
ends. But Panayiota cannot be the same anymore.

In a deserted North Macedonian village, Hatidze, a 50-something woman, trudges up a
hillside to check her bee colonies nestled in the rocks. Serenading them with a secret chant,
she gently maneuvers the honeycomb without netting or gloves. Back at her homestead,
Hatidze tends to her handmade hives and her bedridden mother, occasionally heading
to the capital to market her wares. One day, an itinerant family installs itself next door,
and Hatidze’s peaceful kingdom gives way to roaring engines, seven shrieking children,
and 150 cows. Yet Hatidze welcomes the camaraderie, and she holds nothing back—not
her tried-and-true beekeeping advice, not her affection, not her special brandy. But soon
Hussein, the itinerant family’s patriarch, makes a series of decisions that could destroy
Hatidze’s way of life forever.

SYSTEMSPRENGER
She is small, but dangerous. Wherever Benni ends up, she is immediately expelled. The wild
9 year old girl has already become what child protection services call a “system crasher”.
And she is certainly not looking to change her ways. Because Benni has one single goal: to
be back at home with her mommy! But Bianca is scared of her own daughter. Mrs. Bafané
from child protection services is trying her best to find a permanent placement for Benni.
She hires the anger management trainer Micha as Benni’s school escort and suddenly
there is a seed of hope. Will Micha be able to succeed where all others despaired? While
being acutely authentic, first-time director Nora Fingscheidt transcends a psychological
study and crafts vibrant, visceral and emotional cinema, which evokes unforgettable
performances.

Halla is a fifty-year-old independent woman. But behind the scenes of a quiet routine, she
leads a double life as a passionate environmental activist. Known to others only by her
alias ‘The Woman of the Mountain’, Halla secretly wages a one-woman-war on the local
aluminium industry. As Halla’s actions grow bolder, from petty vandalism to outright
industrial sabotage, she succeeds in interrupting the negotiations between the Icelandic
Government and the corporation building a new aluminium smelter in the mountains.
But, just as she begins planning her biggest and boldest operation yet, she receives an
unexpected letter that changes everything. Her application to adopt a child has finally been
accepted and there is a little girl waiting for her in Ukraine. As Halla prepares to abandon her
role as saboteur and saviour of the Highlands to fulfil her dream of becoming a mother, she
decides to plot one final attack to deal the aluminium industry a crippling blow.

A locked door inside a Belgrade apartment has kept one family separated from their past
for over 70 years. As the filmmaker begins an intimate conversation with her mother, the
political fault line running through their home reveals a house and a country haunted by
history. The chronicle of a family in Serbia turns into a searing portrait of an activist in times
of great turmoil, questioning the responsibility of each generation to fight for its future.

Rike - a doctor from Europe in her mid-30s - embodies a typically Western model of happiness and
success. She is educated, confident, determined and committed. We see Rike’s everyday life as an
overworked emergency doctor before she sets out on a much-needed holiday to Gibraltar. There she
fulfils a long-held dream and heads out to sea alone in her sailing boat. Her goal: Ascension Island in
the Atlantic Ocean. But her dream holiday is quickly broken off on the high seas, when, after a storm,
she finds herself near a stricken refugee boat. Unless she intervenes, around a hundred people will
drown – their completely overloaded boat has sprung a leak. Rike follows maritime law and radios
for help - legally, she is not obliged to do any more. But when her calls are left unanswered, and then
rejected on spurious grounds, she decides to overcome her fear and try to rescue whoever she can.

gangs. In the Donbass, war is called peace, propaganda is uttered as truth and hatred
is declared to be love. A journey through the Donbass unfolds as a chain of curious
adventures, where the grotesque and drama are as intertwined as life and death. This is
not a tale of one region, one country or one political system. It is about a world, lost in post-
truth and fake identities. It is about each and every one of us.

Customs officer Tina is known for her extraordinary sense of smell. It’s almost as if she can
sniff out the guilt on anyone hiding something. But when Vore, a suspicious-looking man,
walks past her, her abilities are challenged for the first time ever. Tina can sense Vore is
hiding something she can’t identify. Even worse, she feels a strange attraction to him. As
Tina develops a special bond with Vore and discovers his true identity, she also realizes the
truth about herself. Tina, like Vore, does not belong to this world. Her entire existence has
been one big lie and now she has to choose: keep living the lie or embrace Vore’s terrifying
revelations.

This is the tale of a meeting between Lazzaro, a young peasant so good that he is often
mistaken for simple-minded, and Tancredi, a young nobleman cursed by his imagination.
Life in their isolated pastoral village Inviolata is dominated by the terrible Marchesa
Alfonsina de Luna, the queen of cigarettes. A loyal bond is sealed when Tancredi asks
Lazzaro to help him orchestrate his own kidnapping. This strange and improbable alliance
is a revelation for Lazzaro. A friendship so precious that it will travel in time and transport
Lazzaro in search of Tancredi. His first time in the big city, Lazzaro is like a fragment of the
past lost in the modern world.

On 22 July 2011 more than 500 youths at a political summer camp on an island outside
Oslo were attacked by an armed, right-wing extremist. Earlier that day he bombed a
Government building in Oslo, before making his way to Utøya island. In this first fictional
movie about the attack we get to know Kaja (18) and her friends. The movie starts when the
youngsters, shocked by the bombing in Oslo, are reassuring their relatives that they are far
away from the incident. Suddenly, the safe atmosphere is shattered when shots are heard.
We then follow Kaja as she tries to survive – minute by minute.

Carla Simón has granted us access to a decisive moment in her own life. In a difficult,
painful and unique episode that would change her life forever, at just six years old she
found herself orphaned and struggling to find her place in an adoptive family while still
trying to come to terms with the loss of her biological one. The film explores this time with
great sensitivity, and is peppered with details that send us right back to childhood, with
all of its anxieties and unexpected twists: a time in our lives that is never all happiness,
laughter and fun.

It is a personal story, based on the director’s own experiences as a young boy growing up
in such a village – “A place full of contrast, where the sun shines for the longest time in the
country over the summer and the shortest time over the winter; a place where young kids
come to know animals, and often discover how nature and people can be both amazingly
beautiful and incredibly cruel,” Gudmundsson observed. “As a kid and a teenager, I used
to wish that I could show the grown-ups around me how our world really was. Now, as a
filmmaker, I want to do that – portray youth in a truthful way, as these years reflect our lives
in a very clear, beautiful and sometimes harsh manner.”

decaying bodies and fantasized of hard core sexual experiences. Known for his keen sense
of humor, he is also scared of spiders and tending to his sick mother. His neurotic, suicidal
son, Tomasz, is a cult radio DJ and translator, responsible for the Polish versions of Monty
Python films. His wife, Zofia Beksińska, a devoted Catholic, endures these two eccentrics
and glues the family together. As the parents try to prevent their son from hurting himself,

Beatrice is a motor-mouthed fantasist, a self-styled billionaire countess who likes to
believe she is on intimate terms with world leaders. Donatella is a tattooed introvert, a
fragile young woman locked in her own mystery. They are both patients at the Villa Biondi,
a progressive but secure psychiatric clinic.
Paolo Virzì’s new film tells the story of the unpredictable and moving friendship that
develops between the two women as they flee the mental institution in search of love and
happiness in the open-air nuthouse - the world of sane people.

A group of aid workers tries to remove a cadaver from a well in an armed conflict zone. The
body was thrown into the well to contaminate the water and cut the water supply to the local
population. But circumstances soon turn a simple task into an impossible mission. The workers
cross the frenzied war landscape like guinea pigs in a maze, and there might be no way out. A
war inside another war, in which the only enemy could be irrationality. The crisis they’re trying
to solve is humanitarian, but they’re only human. Humour, drama, tenderness, routine, danger,
hope: it all fits into a perfect day. This film’s only genre is life itself. Like a Russian doll, it’s a drama
inside a comedy, inside a road movie, inside a war movie.

In a secluded valley in Iceland, Gummi and Kiddi live side by side, tending to their sheep.
Their ancestral sheep-stock is considered one of the country’s best and the two brothers
are repeatedly awarded for their prized rams who carry an ancient lineage. Although
they share the land and a way of life, Gummi and Kiddi have not spoken to each other
in four decades. When a lethal disease suddenly infects Kiddi’s sheep, the entire valley
comes under threat. The authorities decide to cull all the animals in the area to contain
the outbreak. This is a near death sentence for the farmers, whose sheep are their main
source of income, and many abandon their land. But Gummi and Kiddi don’t give up so
easily – and each brother tries to stave off the disaster in his own fashion: Kiddi by using
his rifle and Gummi by using his wits. As the authorities close in the brothers will need to
come together to save the special breed passed down for generations, and themselves,
from extinction.

nearly two years. If nothing changes, he will soon be left with an income of just 500 euros
a month with which to support his family and ensure the future of his disabled son. His
desperate need of work leads to “humiliating” episodes in which he tries to make a good
impression and make himself look as accommodating as possible: a fruitless appointment
at the Job Centre, a job interview via Skype (“I’m going to be honest with you. There’s
very little chance of you being hired”), a discussion with his bank manager (“taking out
life insurance would allow you to face the future more calmly”), simulated recruitment
exercises in which his flaws (posture, politeness, expression, the power of his voice and
the rhythm of his speech) are closely scrutinised by people who are unemployed like him.

with his two sisters, Ana (17) and Andreea (14) and their drug-abusive uncles. They are
waiting for their mother to come back from prison after a 4 years absence. As the film
unveils, it delivers an intimate account of the lives of children growing up in a tough
environment. Each one of the siblings tries to push through the hard times in his very own
way. As Toto finds his new passion in dancing and learning how to read and write, his two

Maria finds herself caught between two worlds. At school this 14-year-old girl has all the
typical teenage interests, but when she’s at home with her family, she follows the teachings
of the Society of St. Pius XII and their traditionalist interpretation of Catholicism. Everything
that Maria thinks and does must be examined before God. And since the Lord is a strict
shepherd, she lives in constant fear of committing some misconduct. Whilst Maria’s
mother takes a tough line in compelling her daughter to stay on the path of righteousness,
her father is often reticent and stands back during critical moments. Conflicts intensify
as arguments erupt with teachers and doctors. Desperate to please everyone, Maria soon
finds herself trapped in the crossfire.

from 22 different countries are housed. One of them is eleven-year-old Ramasan who has
come here from Chechnya with his mother and two younger sisters. His father was killed
in the conflict with the Russians, at least that’s what he’s been told. Ramasan tries his best
to take his father’s place – for instance by looking after his sisters or tucking his mother’s
stray hair back underneath her headscarf. But then a brooding man named Isa, a friend
of Ramasan’s father from the old days, suddenly arrives in Macondo and Ramasan’s life is

shining and the slopes are spectacular, but during a lunch at a mountainside restaurant,
an avalanche turns everything upside down. With diners fleeing in all directions, mother
Ebba calls for her husband Tomas as she tries to protect their children. Tomas, meanwhile,
is running for his life… The anticipated disaster failed to occur, and yet the family’s world
has been shaken to its core, a question mark hanging over their father in particular. Tomas
and Ebba’s marriage now hangs in the balance as Tomas struggles desperately to reclaim
his role as family patriarch.

It is a love story between Elise and Didier. She has her own tattoo shop; he plays the banjo
in a band. It is love at first sight, in spite of major differences. He talks, she listens. He is a
dedicated atheist, although at the same time a naive romantic. She has a cross tattooed on
her neck, even though she has both feet firmly on the ground. Their happiness is complete
after their little girl Maybelle is born. Unfortunately, Maybelle, at six years old, becomes
seriously ill. Didier and Elise respond in very different ways. But Maybelle does not leave
them any choice. Didier and Elise will have to fight for her together.

Tbilisi, Georgia, 1992: The Soviet era is over and Georgia must fend for itself. Civil war is
raging in the province of Abkhazia. Tbilisi is a chaotic place where people fight for a place
in the queue to buy bread and the lawless streets are teeming with arrogant soldiers and
crooks. For Natia and Eka, fourteen-year-old, childhood is coming to an end. Eka is growing
up without her father, rebelling against her concerned mother and older sister. And Natia’s
father, a choleric alcoholic, terrorises the entire family. The two friends cannot find peace
outside the family either – neither in school, nor on the street, nor in the bread lines. Chaos,
insecurity and fear of what the future might bring hold sway in everyday life. An admirer
gives Natia a pistol with one single bullet. A little later, she’s abducted by another admirer.

Ballús chose five people living on the outskirts of Barcelona and spent four years working

documentary and fiction, the film, shot during the hottest part of the summer, combines
the stories of five people working on the outskirts of Barcelona whose paths cross every
day.Lurie,aMoldavianwrestlerwhoiswaitingforSpanishpapers,isworkingontheharvest
with farmer Raül. Raül took over the farm from his parents. The situation is precarious, as
an insect plague has infested his fields and is threatening to ruin the yield. Respiratory
problems have forced his neighbour Maria, an almost 90-year-old farmer, to move into an
old people’s home. There she meets geriatric nurse Rosemarie from the Philippines, who
has only been living in Spain for a short time and makes her way to work every day on foot.
On a dirt road near the highway, Maribel sits on a wobbly garden chair, trying to earn a
living for herself and her unemployed son as a prostitute.

of the Nistru river with 518 000 citizens is not officially recognised by any other country.
A professional film has never been shot on this territory. Framed by the presidential
election, Fortress focuses on a couple of characters stuck in this geopolitical gap between
the European Union and Russia, in between capitalist present and soviet past, crime and
decency, decadence and hope for change.

who she met on a spring night in East Berlin, is working to help her escape. She does
not care about anything around her: the patients, her colleagues, the neighbours, the
summer and the countryside. There is nothing holding her here anymore. Barbara is cold,
withdrawing from everyone and everything around her. That summer, her existence is
disturbed. She meets a physician, André, who was also transferred for disciplinary reasons.
André confuses Barbara. Did they put him on to her? Or has he fallen in love with her?
Barbara loses control – of herself, of love, of her life.

CESARE DEVE MORIRE
The performance of Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar comes to an end and the performers are
rewarded with rapturous applause. The lights go out; the actors leave the stage and return
to their cells. They are all inmates of the maximum security prison Rebibbia in Rome. One of
them comments: ‘Ever since I discovered art this cell has truly become a prison’. Filmmakers
Paolo and Vittorio Taviani spent six months following rehearsals for this stage production;
their film demonstrates how the universality of Shakespeare’s language helps the actors
to understand their roles and immerse themselves in the bard’s interplay of friendship and
betrayal, power, dishonesty and violence.

the crime and brought to the Krakow Detention Centre, where he immediately starts a
hunger strike. Claiming he was in Italy on the day of the theft, his demands are clear: he
wants a meeting with a Romanian Consulate representative and another attorney. At the
beginning of 2008, Crulic’s deteriorating health prompts the court to release him. But it is
too late; the young man dies sixteen hours later.

a painful separation and an unexpected crisis leave her homeless and immersed in debt,
forcing her to sleep in her car. Her job as a hotel maid is not enough for rent or to pay off
her debts. However, Louise keeps fighting for a better future. Refusing even the help of
friends and a man who truly loves her, she will nevertheless find the strength to build a
new life for herself.
