🎙️“Serving on the EUFCN Location Award Jury has been an inspiring experience. […] this year’s imaginative entries made every decision a true challenge. From rugged natural landscapes and evocative historic sites to strikingly designed contemporary spaces, the locations did far more than frame the action, they elevated the storytelling on screen. This year’s work shows that when filmmakers treat a location as a true storytelling force, the result is a viewing experience that is richer, more immersive and truly worthy of recognition.” - EUFCN Location Awards 2025 Jury
The five outstanding locations are now competing for two distinct awards:
🔸 The EUFCN Location Award 2025, selected by the Location Award Jury
