    The European Film Academy and Curtas Vila do Conde – International Film Festival congratulate THE BIRTHDAY PARTY

    THE BIRTHDAY PARTY

    Germany/Italy/France, 2022, 17 min
    DIRECTED BY Francesco Sossai

    December 1999. I remember that, amidst the Millenium Bug anxiety, I went to the birthday of Enrico, a kid who lived with his family in an old and isolated farmhouse.

    THE BIRTHDAY PARTY was selected at the Curtas Vila do Conde – International Film Festival for the European Film Awards.

    The film is now a candidate for a nomination in the category ‘European Short Film’ at the European Film Awards 2023.

     

    This is the 18th short film candidate for 2023. You can check out the rest of the candidates here for the 36th edition of the European Film Awards.

    The short film programme is organised by the European Film Academy in co-operation with a series of film festivals throughout Europe. At each of these festivals, an independent jury presents one of the European short films in competition with a candidacy in the short film category of the European Film Awards.

    After the annual cycle is completed, the participating festivals will nominate five short films from this list. Afterwards, the more than 4,600 members of the European Film Academy – film professionals from all over Europe – will vote for the overall winner that will be presented at the 36th European Film Awards Ceremony.
