THREE GERMAN SHORTS AT THE EUROPEAN SHORT FILM AWARD

The European Film Awards are traditionally held in December and the European Short Film 2019 will also be awarded. Films qualify for a nomination by winning an award at one of 20 European film festivals. At the end of September, the nominations were made for five films, from which the more than 3500 members of the European Film Academy will select the award winner. And three German short films and co-productions are on the candidate list this year: FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT by Nina Fischer & Maroan el Sani (DE/IT) was nominated at the Rotterdam International Film Festival 2019, BLACK SUN by Arda Çiltepe (TR/DE) is the Short Film Nominee of the Locarno Film Festival 2019, and OSLO by Shady Srourvon (IL/DE) found its way onto the list of candidates by winning at the Odense International Film Festival.
