€Docs
Documentary Europe is a selection of exceptional EU documentary films suited to the big screen.
To the point - Films & Books
European literature is incredibly rich and diverse. The emergence of cinematography gave it a chance of a second life – the most famous literary works could be adapted for the big screen. Cinematography and literature have been meeting and inspiring each other more and more over the last few decades. As 2018 has been selected the European Year of Cultural Heritage (EYCH), the „To the Point“ section of this year’s DEF, prepared together with the European Commission Representation in the Czech Republic, is dedicated to literature on the silver screen. The section therefore focuses on different forms of translating literature into the language of film. „To the Point“ brings you several new film adaptations, as well as some distinctive portraits of selected writers. The selection of the films shows us how to „write with film“.
LUX Film Prize
This section, devoted to the European Parliament LUX Film Prize - an award that promotes European cinematography, values and social issues, will present the 2017 winner and other finalists.
MEDIA – Europe’s Best
European film awards are often spoken of as “the Oscars of Europe”, awarding prestigious prizes to the best European films, filmmakers and protagonists. Europe’s Best presents award winning films from the past year - the best films Europe has to offer.
