LUX Audience Award: Film FLOW 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 second film in the Bocholt 2025 series, the silent film FLOW, will be shown on 31 January.
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 FLOW about?
FLOW is an animation from the year 2024 from Latvia, France and Belgium
The theme: The world, littered with the remnants of human civilisation, seems to be on the brink of destruction. A black tomcat, actually a loner, loses his home due to a massive flood, a consequence of climate change. He finds refuge on a boat inhabited by animals of different species. Despite their obvious differences, he is forced to join them. As the lonely boat glides through mysterious, flooded landscapes, the disparate community must navigate the challenges and dangers that await them in this new world.
