European Cinema Night 2025

KUD Pristava Počakovo in informacijska točka EUROPE DIRECT Novo mesto, vas v soboto, 19. julija 2025, ob 21.00 vabita na brezplačen ogled filma, ki je prejel oskarja za najboljši animirani film.

Ko svet preplavi voda, mora samotarska mačka zaupati drugim živalim, da bi preživela. Na čolnu, kjer se zbere raznolika druščina – od kapibare do makija in tajnika – se začne tiho, a napeto potovanje skozi potopljen svet. Brez enega samega dialoga, a z osupljivo animacijo in izjemno zvočno podobo, film Valovanje (Flow)pripoveduje ganljivo zgodbo o sodelovanju, prilagajanju in iskanju skupnega ritma v kaosu narave.

Projekcija filma bo potekala pod kozolcem, v primeru dežja v prostorih KUD Pristava Počakovo.

Vstop je prost!

Dogodek delno financira Evropska unija in podpira Razvojni center Novo mesto.

Projekcije se odvijajo skozi vse poletje po vsej Sloveniji. Organizirajo jih informacijske točke EUROPE DIRECT v sodelovanju s centrom Ustvarjalna Evropa. Namen Filmskega tedna Evrope je raznolikost in bogastvo evropskega filma približati širši javnosti. Po vsej Sloveniji bodo na voljo bodo številne brezplačne projekcije, vsi predvajani filmi pa so prejemniki sredstev EU za spodbujanje evropske filmske in avdiovizualne industrije. Film Valovanje je prejel nagrado občinstva LUX za leto 2025, s katero Evropski parlament spodbuja kulturno raznolikost in povezovanje med evropskimi državami.

More than 88 cinemas from the network of Europa Cinema will participate in this edition. Each cinema has selected a European film based on the interests of their audiences, to provide a tailored cinematic experience. This edition carries on with the novelty introduced last year, which is the possibility for cinemas to select family-friendly films to attract young audiences to the initiative, as well as classic films to connect citizens with our shared cinematic cultural heritage.

To propose a sweeping experience beyond the screenings, some cinemas will organize complementary activities such as presentations, Q&A sessions with directors, actors, or other film crew members, and engaging debates. These activities aim to give audiences the opportunity to discuss the films with fellow enthusiasts.

The European Cinema Night keeps growing

This initiative will reach out to more than 10,000 cinema goers in numerous cities across Europe, connecting audiences around a shared European identity built on diversity. This initiative has considerably grown throughout the years.
