Nadav Lapid headed a jury of 27 young European film enthusiasts who are all part of the European Parliament’s 27 Times Cinema programme, a project created ten years ago by the Giornate degli Autori, the LUX Film Award and Europa Cinemas.

This competition has always been more than just a simple contest,”says Giorgio Gosetti, General Secretary of the Giornate degli Autori, referring to the jury president.“We see it as a way of supporting the best independent films after their world premiere in Venice. That’s why we look for outstanding film personalities with far-reaching vision, like Nadav Lapid, to chair the discussions of a diverse group of young film aficionados who can imagine the cinema of the future.
