19/10/2023 - The latest feature films by Pablo Berger, Chiara Malta and Sébastien Laudenbach and Enzo D'Alò are vying for the statuette

The European Film Academy has revealed the nominees of the European Animated Feature Film and European Short Film categories in the upcoming European Film Awards.

The committee which decided on the nominations for European Animated Feature Film was comprised of representatives of the European Film Academy and CARTOON, the European Association for Animation Film. The European Short Film category is organised by the European Film Academy in co-operation with a series of film festivals across Europe. At each of these festivals, an independent jury presented one of the European short films in competition with a candidacy. Out of the complete list of 29 candidates (read here), the participating festivals nominated five films for the European Film Awards.

The 4,600 members of the European Film Academy will vote for the overall winners. This year's awards ceremony will take place on 9 December in Berlin.
