“GLASS TRAP” NOMINATED FOR THE EUROPEAN FILM AWARD!

„Glass Trap” by Paweł Ferdek is the winner of The Best European Film Award at the Tampere Short Film Festival in Finland. The award at the same time is a nomination for The European Film Award for short film. Receiving this prize, awarded by the members of The European Film Academy, let alone being nominated for it, is an extraordinary prestige, especially for a film debut.

The film has already been shown during IDFA in Amsterdam, the most important European festival. Last Saturday it was nominated by the representative of the European Film Academy. It took place during the closing ceremony of the 39th International Tampere Short Film Festival in Finland –  the greatest  Scandinavian event presenting short and documentary films, and one of the largest and oldest ones in Europe.

Short films nominated for EFA are selected from the films shown during the international competitions of thirteen European film festivals held in Ghent, Cork, Valladolid, Berlin,, Angers, Tampere, Krakow, Grimstad, Edinburgh, Vila do Conde, Sarajevo, Venice and Athens.

The winners’ names will be announced during the annual EFA awards ceremony, which will not be held in Berlin as usual, but will take place in Essen.

You can see “Glass Trap” during the Go Shorts festival, which is held in Holland in the second half of March.
