The European Film Academy and EFA Productions gathered to proclaim the 46 films for official selection in this year’s Feature Film section. A diverse bunch for sure, with 31 European nations being represented by these films.
From here, the chosen committee will vote for the nominations – to be announced on 9th November 2019. That committee is not just made up of the 3,600 on the EFA Board, but also further expert invitees, including festival programmers from Italy, Germany, Spain, Russia, Lithuania and France.
