12th Edition of the European Film Festival in Malta – 2014

12th Edition of the European Film Festival in Malta – 2014

 

The European Commission Representation in Malta with the collaboration of the European embassies in Malta and Rome is again organising another edition of the European Film Festival.

The Festival will be launched on Friday the 14th November 2014 and between the 15th and the 30th November a different film will be screened every evening at Europe House, St Paul Street, Valletta. This 12th Edition of the European Film Festival is being held in celebration of the 10th anniversary of Malta’s EU membership.

The festival builds on the success of the previous editions.  It presents a vast array of European films and closes with a selection of Maltese short films.  Seventeen films from sixteen countries – Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Slovenia, Spain – will be screened giving local audiences a taste of Europe’s diversity and creativity.

This year’s Festival covers a wide selection of different film genres with an exciting variety of cinematography, visually recounting stories of love, hatred, courage and resolve for an audience which, from one edition to another, reaches new peaks of appreciation for European film-making. The European Film Festival provides an opportunity for showcasing the diversity of cultures in the EU: films from many different countries, in a great variety of languages, yet all distinctly European.

No entrance fee will be charged but donations in aid of Hospice Malta are welcome. The films will start at 6.30pm and run without interval. Seats are on a first-come-first-served basis. Light refreshments will be offered afterwards.

For information on the film schedule visit the Representation’s website: www.ec.europa.eu/malta; Facebook: KummissjoniEwropea, or tel: 2342-5000.
