LUX Audience Award: Film ANIMAL at the Kinodrom

The five films nominated for the LUX Audience Award will be subtitled in 24 European languages in order to make them accessible to the widest possible audience in European cinemas. The Bocholt series of LUX films starts with the film ANIMAL on 24 January 2025 at 6 pm. Further dates are: 31 January, 7, 14 and 21 February 2025

The LUX Audience Award, organised since 2020 by the European Parliament and the European Film Academy in cooperation with the European Commission and Europa Cinema, combines the ratings of the European audience with the ratings of MEPs, half of which are included in the final result.

The LUX Film Prize was launched by the European Parliament in 2007 to support the circulation of films of high artistic quality produced in the EU. The nominated films reflect the cultural diversity in Europe and deal with themes such as human dignity, equality, non-discrimination, integration, tolerance, justice and solidarity.

Cinema-goers can rate the films on the voting platform https://luxaward-rating.europarl.europa.eu/de/ until the end of March 2025. The winning film will be announced at a ceremony in the European Parliament in April 2025.

In Bocholt, the events of the LUX Audience Award 2025 are supported by the Europa-Union Bocholt e.V., the German-French Society e.V., the BELC network and the VHS Bocholt.

What is the film ANIMAL about?

ANIMAL is a 2023 drama film from Greece, Austria, Romania, Cyprus and Bulgaria.

The theme: In the Greek summer heat, the entertainers at an all-inclusive hotel prepare for the high season. Kalia is the leader of the group. In glittering costumes, they whirl across decorated stages in dance interludes. As the summer progresses, the work gets harder and harder. The nights get wilder and wilder and Kalia can no longer keep her problems hidden. But in the end, as soon as the spotlights come on, the show must go on.
