See the two of the shortlisted finalists for this year’s LUX Audience Awards this season at Scandinavia House! On February 15 we’ll be screening Animal, director Sofia Exarchou’s “darkly intriguing” (The Hollywood Reporter) film exploring the downsides of all-inclusive tourist hotels.
Under the hot Greek sun, the animateurs at an all-inclusive island resort prepare for the busy touristic season. Kalia is the leader of the pack. Paper decors, glossy costumes and dance shows fill the stage. As summer intensifies and the work pressure builds up, their nights become violent and Kalia’s struggle is revealed in the darkness. But when the spotlights turn on again, the show must go on.
This event has been organized by the European Parliament in partnership with Scandinavia House.
