🎬 Congratulations to director Augustė Gerikaitė and the entire team behind Glitter Kiss!

The 6th FilmEU Summit @filmeu.university, hosted by LUCA School of Arts @luca.schoolofarts in Brussels, brought together students, educators and film professionals from across Europe. As part of the summit, the 2nd FilmEU Emerging Filmmakers Film Festival took place across three venues in Brussels, culminating in the awards ceremony at LUCA's beautiful Film Faculty.

This year's festival showcased 25 outstanding student films, making the jury's task particularly challenging. The selected works represented an exceptionally high standard of emerging European cinema, leading to thoughtful discussions before the final decisions were made. It was an honour for the Lithuanian Cultural Attaché to the EU Adelė Dovydavičiūtė @adeledov to serve as a member of the international jury.

We were also delighted to welcome the delegation from the Lithuanian Academy of Music and Theatre LMTA @lmta.lt, who participated in the summit and the film festival, representing Lithuania among Europe's emerging filmmakers and film educators.

We are especially proud that the Audience Award went to the Lithuanian short film Glitter Kiss, directed by Augustė Gerikaitė @ogust3!

Congratulations also to the other award winners: 🥇 First Prize •Hot Flush• by Hana Hančinová 🥈 Second Prize •Prayer• by Sofia Geweiler 🥉 Third Prize •How to Listen to Fountains• by Eva Sajanová.

And what an incredible coincidence: on the very same evening, Augustė Gerikaitė received another major international recognition, winning the Young Director Award – Golden Prize in Cannes for Glitter Kiss. A remarkable double success and a proud moment for Lithuanian cinema.

Congratulations to Augustė and the entire Glitter Kiss team on this outstanding achievement! 🇱🇹✨

GLITTER KISS wins the Young Director Award – Producer-Driven Award for Emerging Directing Voices at YDA (Cannes, France) ❤️

@youngdirectoraward was established in 1998 by CFP-E (Commercial Film Producers of Europe), on the initiative of its then President, François Chilot. From the very beginning, the idea was both simple and ambitious: to give new directing talent a real chance, supported by producers who believe that the future of the industry depends on those who dare to start.

We’re proud that the film is being noticed and appreciated as it travels the festival circuit, and we’re excited to see “GLITTER KISS” continuing its journey around the world! 🌍❤️

Congrats to the whole team! 🥇
