LUX Audience Award

The LUX Audience Award is presented every year by the European Parliament and the European Film Academy, in partnership with the European Commission and Europa Cinemas. The award celebrates European cinema and aims at engaging  and debate with the larger European public on important societal subjects reflecting our common European values such as democracy, rule of law, pluralism and freedom of expression.

Where to watch the nominated films

The European Parliament organises free screenings in all European Union countries. In addition, you can watch the film(s) by attending a commercial screening in a cinema near you.

For the 2026 edition, and for the first time, all five nominated films will be subtitled for the deaf and hard of hearing people in all 24 EU languages, making them more accessible.
