Emilia Pérez and The Room Next Door are the front-runners for this year’s awards with four nominations apiece.

Fifteen features compete for the best European film prize, up from five last year. This follows a recent rule change which includes films shortlisted for the best documentary and animation categories in the section.

During the ceremony, Italian actress and filmmaker Isabella Rossellini will receive the European Achievement In World Cinema award, German filmmaker Wim Wenders will be awarded the European Lifetime Achievement prize, and Macedonian producer Labina Mitovska will be honoured with the Eurimages International Co-Production award.

Fernando Tiberini is on awards hosting duty tonight. 

The EFA Craft Awards were announced last month: Coralie Fargeat’s body horror The Substance and Magnus von Horn’s crime drama The Girl With The Needle were among the winners with two craft prizes each.
