European Union Film Festival 2010
Place: Toronto
Event: The Goethe-Institut Toronto and participating EU missions in Toronto are proud to present the 6th European Union Film Festival, featuring acclaimed recent films from Europe.
[…] What I love most about this festival, other than the free tickets, is its democratic nature. Each country may only be represented by one film, so the usual behemoths of European cinema (France, Italy, Germany, Denmark, Spain) are on a level playing field with the smaller countries (Cyprus, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, Slovenia) whose cinema we rarely get a chance to see. Last year featured six films that were official submissions for the Best Foreign Film Award at the Oscars, and although this year features fewer high-profile films, it promises more discoveries. Not many of these films have played yet in Toronto, and most likely won’t return, so don’t miss your chance to see what’s hap-pening in some of the less glamorous corners of European cinema. The price is certainly right. Here are a few highlights: […]
