Jacques Audiard’s latest Emilia Pérez dominated the European Film Awards this evening in Lucerne, Switzerland, taking Best Film and Best Director. Check out the full winners list below.
The Netflix crime drama won all four of it’s nominations. Audiard’s pic came into this evening’s tied with Pedro Almodovar’s The Room Next Door for the most noms. The film’s haul included Best Actress for Karla Sofia Gascón and Best Screenplay.
Other big winners this evening in Switzerland included filmmaker Gints Zilbalodis who won Best Animated feature for his buzzy pic Flow and the Palestinian-Israeli film No Other Land took the Best Documentary prize.
Tonight’s dominant display hands Audiard and his Emilia Pérez collaborators a significant vote of confidence as they head into the heat of awards seasons. The European Film Awards, which are voted on by the Berlin-based European Film Academy’s some 5,000 members based across Europe, are also seen as a bellwether for which European films are likely to pick up steam in the U.S. awards season.
Last year’s Best European Film winner Anatomy of a Fall garnered five Oscar nominations, including Best Picture and Best Actress (Sandra Hüller), with director Justine Triet and co-writer Arthur Harari winning the Academy Award for Best Screenplay.
This year’s ceremony in Lucerne marked the last time it takes place in December with the dates shifting to mid-January, starting with the 38th edition in 2026, as part of a strategy to position the prizes within the wider awards season conversation on both sides of the Atlantic.
