Romanian/Cypriot/Bulgarian minority coproduction Animal by Sofia Exarchou is among the five titles nominated for LUX – The European Audience Film Award 2025, presented by the European Parliament and the European Film Academy in partnership with the European Commission and Europa Cinemas.

The five shortlisted films were announced at the European Parliament in Strasbourg on 18 September 2024.

The winner of the LUX Audience Award is chosen by citizens across the EU and by MEPs. A platform to rate the nominated films will be open from 18 September until April 2025. The winner will be announced in April 2025 at a ceremony in the European Parliament in Brussels.

During the competition period, the European Parliament organises free screenings across the 27 Member States for the five nominated films that were selected by a panel of film professionals from across the EU.

The Award is complemented by the Young Talent Programme, which was launched on 16 September 2024, to engage young cinema professionals in the promotion of European values and the LUX Audience Award project.
