Contemporary European Visions | European Film Awards Special

The Golden Horse collaborative screening series is themed “European Film Awards: Battle for the Best Actor and Actress,” featuring films that competed for Best Actor and Best Actress at the European Film Awards. In response to this program, Giloo has also curated titles from its platform that were nominated at the European Film Awards, extending the selection to include other works by the nominated directors. Beyond focusing on human performers, the program also highlights Flow (a film dubbed by small animals) nominated for Best Film, and EO, nominated for Best Director. In addition, it includes works by directors who have previously received European Film Award nominations: Thelma by Joachim Trier, the director of the beloved “Oslo Trilogy”; the short film Tuesday Afternoon by Charlotte Wells, director of Aftersun; and The Apprentice, in which Ali Abbasi—director of Holy Spider—reimagines the rise of Donald Trump. These films vary widely in style and are not necessarily set in Europe, yet all have been recognized and celebrated at major international film festivals.
