    In 23 universities in 23 countries the five nominees will be viewed and discussed and each institution will select its favourite film. In early December, one student representative from each university will attend a three-day deliberation meeting in Hamburg to decide on the overall winner. The winner will then be announced on 6 December, shortly before this year’s European Film Awards Ceremony on 7 December in Lucerne. The aim of this joint initiative by the European Film Academy and FILMFEST HAMBURG is to involve a younger audience, to spread the European idea and to transport the spirit of European cinema to an audience of university students. It shall also support film dissemination, film education and the culture of debating.

    The European University Film Award 2024 is made possible with the support of the Claussen-Simon Foundation and the Alfred Toepfer Foundation F.V.S..
