Cinema, as a cultural mass medium, harnesses the emotional power of film to bring together the diversity of Europe and evokes the multifaceted, ever-changing nature of our European identity. Culture and film, as a cultural mass medium, are keys to unlocking dialogue between communities and overcoming these barriers. They are ideal tools to address stereotypes and prejudices, pave the way for intercultural dialogue and respond to the challenges facing our societies. This is exactly what the LUX FILM PRIZE is all about. With the LUX FILM PRIZE catalogue, we want to invite you to discover more than 100 important, poignant masterpieces that will take you on a journey through Europe and beyond. Look at your neighbour through the lens of emerging or already well-established directors. Use films to touch the hearts of European citizens and talk about the importance of being united in our diversity. See Europe in a different light. 7 LUX FILM PRIZE Most European films are only shown in the country where they were made and are rarely distributed across borders. The contrast is even bigger when we see that more than 60% of films released are European, but these are only watched by one third of the cinema audience. In this context, the European Parliament created the LUX FILM PRIZE in 2007. It has enhanced both the distribution of quality European films and the European debate. The 10 films in the LUX FILM PRIZE Official Selection unveiled at the Karlovy Vary Film Festival are the showcase of European cinema. In particular, the selection of the 3 final films in the LUX FILM PRIZE Competition, announced at the Venice Days, is closely followed by the film industry. Their distribution is facilitated by Parliament´s support with subtitling in the 24 official languages and the DCP [Digital Cinema Package] production per country. Moreover, the LUX FILM PRIZE winner is also adapted for the visually and hearing impaired, thus enlarging its audience and market potential. The LUX FILM PRIZE films are also disseminated via the field of education. Partners from different areas take advantage of the high quality film catalogue and also of the educational kits that are produced in all the Official EU languages for each competing film since 2012. The LUX FILM PRIZE filmography offers a wide variety of high quality films that echo the European Parliament´s agenda at legislative level. These films portraying life in Europe are a powerful communication tool to address the concerns of citizens from an array of angles, be it human, passionate, expert, realistic or political. 8 LUX FILM DAYS The LUX FILM DAYS are a unique cultural experience which transcends borders. From October until December, the LUX FILM DAYS create a temporary European Public Space in which European cinema lovers can watch and share 3 remarkable films, in the 28 Member States and in the 24 official European languages. The screenings usually take place in cooperation with film festivals, cinematheques and theatres. They are also often national previews. The three competing films are screened more than 220 times across Europe, accompanied by educational kits in the corresponding languages. Herein lies the uniqueness of the European Parliament’s initiative. The LUX FILM DAYS is an experience that can be shared across Europe no matter the language spoken. It creates a platform for belonging to a European public space, by discussing the same topic in the same place and at the same time. As part of the wider reflection, the audience is invited to express and share their views with other Europeans and to vote for their favourite film on luxprize.eu or on LUX FILM PRIZE Facebook page, awarding an AUDIENCE MENTION. 9 FILMOGRAPHY 19-12 OFFICIAL SELECTION COMPETITION 2019 COLD CASE HAMMARSKJÖLD COLD CASE HAMMARSKJÖLD DIRECTOR Mads Brügger DURATION 119’ YEAR OF RELEASE 2019 SCREENPLAY Mads Brügger CAST Mads Brügger, Göran Björkdahl CINEMATOGRAPHY Tore Vollan PRODUCERS Peter Engel, Bjarte Mørner Tveit, Andreas Rocksén MUSIC Kaada PRODUCTION Wingman Media ApS, Piraya Film AS, Laika Film & Television AB SALES AGENT DR Sales COUNTRIES Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Belgium ORIGINAL VERSIONS English, French, Bemba, Swedish, Danish SUBTITLES AND EDUCATIONAL KIT Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Irish, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Maltese, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish COMMITTEES AFET, DROI, SEDE, LIBE, Danish director Mads Brügger and Swedish private investigator Göran Björkdahl are trying INTA to solve the mysterious death of Dag Hammarskjöld.
