A hybrid event
This year, the EFA has readapted its format and, unlike previous editions, which took place over five days of screenings, exchanges and the Awards ceremony, will consist of an Awards ceremony held in a hybrid format. Several presenters of the different award categories will be at the studio, located in the Arena Berlin, whereas other presenters and nominees will join online. The livestream of the 34th EFA can be followed on the official website at 19:00 CET and EFA’s social media channels: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Youtube.
