MINISTRY OF EDUCATION AND CULTURE OF CYPRUS (CULTURAL SERVICES) Dr George Demosthenous, minister of education and culture of Cyprus “Cyprus’ Ministry of


Education and Culture is pleased to be associated with an organisation whose central aim is to promote Europe’s film culture. By supporting the European Film Academy, we support European excellence in cinematographic works, communicate European values, as well as strengthening dialogue between different countries.”


SEVILLE EUROPEAN FILM FESTIVAL (SEFF) Javier Martin-Dominguez, artistic director “The Seville European Film Festival is proud to host the announcement of the nominations for the


European Film Awards, thanks to the trust of the European Film Academy. We will be co-operating in this endeavour, to promote the love of European films and respect for European film-makers. It is great to celebrate a continent that embraces the whole world without any constraints thanks to its cinema.”


SWEDISH FILM INSTITUTE Anna Serner, CEO “Film is essential for a democracy. Without it, many voices would never be heard, and all kinds of stories never be told. Thanks to the EFA,


we are given a chance to see the fantastic diversity in Europe and share our realities, creating an understanding across borders. The Swedish Film Institute is very proud to be one of the patrons of the EFA and present our Swedish films, just as much as we are looking forward to discovering other important stories from all over Europe.”


NETHERLANDS FILM FUND Doreen Boonekamp, director “Dutch films currently enjoy increasing domestic success. For our small country with its limited language area, it


is essential to belong to a strong European film culture. It is important to participate in developing the profile of the eclectic European film industry with its own values and distinct character. Dutch film-makers are now extending their focus to other European countries. The EFA plays a vital role in this and we are honoured to be a patron.”


STUDIOS SRL: STABILIMENTI CINEMATOGRAFICI E MULTIMEDIALI Daniele Taddei, CEO “My staff and I are very pleased to be one of the EFA patrons. Studios, with its


10 stages, offices, make-up areas, dressing rooms and set-construction department, represents one of the most important reference points for the European film market. This is our first time as patrons and we are proud to promote Europe’s film culture — because we strongly believe in it.”


TELEWIZJA POLSKA SA (TVP)


Maria Nadolna, managing director, international affairs department “Watching a European film is like experiencing a special mixture of familiarity


and exoticism. All these characters, social spheres, jokes, joys, concerns and sorrows look like ours and yet are strange at the same time. This helps us to gain a new, more accurate and enriching view of the world. We are proud to be a part of this process and thank Europe’s film authors for giving us an opportunity to see our reality more closely.”


European Film Awards 2011 n 17


POLISH FILM INSTITUTE Agnieszka Odorowicz, director “The European Film Academy has always been dear to Polish hearts. Since 2006, when we were greatly privileged to host


the awards ceremony in Warsaw, the Polish Film Institute has truly felt a part of the European film family. I congratulate all the nominees of this year’s European Film Awards. We are all eagerly looking forward to seeing the results of EFA this year and in the years to come.”


AB SVENSK FILMINDUSTRI Ann-Kristin Westerberg, senior VP, head of international division “It is wonderful to see the list of nominees and winners of the European Film


Awards every year, as it shows the greatness of European cinema and what we stand for, and we are delighted to support this yearly event. Svensk Filmindustri, as one of the world’s oldest film companies, appreciates the EFA’s successful attempt to acknowledge that quality films will continue to inspire the audience to enjoy stories on the big screen.”
