MEMOIR OF A VEERING STORM Greece, 14 min DIRECTED BY Sophia Georgovassili |
It is a morning in September. A storm is about to break. Α mother drives a girl to school in the morning and picks up a woman at the end of the school day. Anna, a fifteen-year-old girl sneaks out of school, and with the help of her boyfriend, they visit a hospital. There, she has to face an event that will jolt her into adulthood.
MEMOIR OF A VEERING STORM was chosen by the festival’s international jury consisting of Frida Mårtensson, Producer (Sweden), Samir Ljuma, Cinematographer/Producer, and Linn Löffler, Filmmaker.
The short film programme is organised by the European Film Academy in co-operation with a series of film festivals throughout Europe. At each of these festivals, an independent jury presents one of the European short films in competition with a candidacy in the short film category of the European Film Awards.
This is the 19th short film candidate for 2022. After the annual cycle is completed, the participating festivals will nominate five short films from this list. Afterwards, the more than 4,300 members of the European Film Academy – film professionals from all over Europe – will vote for the overall winner that will be presented at the 35th European Film Awards Ceremony.
