European BOO – A
In Eldorado, Otello moves between a sprawling Parisian construction site and a rundown nightclub, where he finds solace alongside his friend, the decadent entertainer Bernardino Femminielli. With the snoring Ivar by her side, Anne turns to the camera and lists everything that is wrong with him. Duck & Sauerkraut turns loneliness and hunger into an animated story of impossible love, full of mishaps and misunderstandings. In Loynes, a corpse with neither name nor past is put on trial in a Kafkaesque courtroom where ritual, bureaucracy and justice collide. And in Abortion Party, director Julie celebrates her abortion with a peculiar group of guests.

Award for European short film (feature, documentary, experimental, animated). A European film is defined as a film by a European director or a film primarily produced in at least one European country. A short film is defined as a film with a running time of 30 minutes or less. The winners are selected by a professional jury composed of international experts. The competition selection combines professional films and exceptional student works – some of which resonate at major international festivals, while others are our fresh discoveries from places where bold short films are created. We focus on films intended primarily for adult audiences, but we also specifically select titles that appeal to seniors, children, or teenage audiences. The key criterion for us is quality and the search for the best films that resonate across generations and borders.
Online presale ends 15 minutes before the start of the screening. Unless the event is marked as sold out, tickets can be purchased on site.
