After an exciting 18-day run, the 17th edition of CinÉast (6-23 October) culminated in an awards ceremony held at Kinepolis Kirchberg in Luxembourg City. The event celebrated the finest of this year’s Central and Eastern European cinema, offering a resonant finale to nearly three weeks of screenings, exhibitions, cine-debates and concerts, among an array of other activities.
The international jury was led by Romanian director Alexander Nanau, who also held a master class at CinÉast. The jury also featured Estonian director Anna Hints, Luxembourgish director Jacques Molitor, Hungarian helmer Szilárd Bernáth and Luxembourgish actress Hana Sofia Lopes.
The jurors awarded the Grand Prix to Toxic [+], the haunting debut by Saulė Bliuvaitė, which zeroes in on two 13-year-old girls in a bleak industrial Lithuanian town, blending gritty realism with eerie, dreamlike imagery to craft a coming-of-age narrative that delves into the complexities of abuse, both endured and inflicted. The jury recognised the film as the unanimous winner: “In the long list of coming-of-age stories, this debut film really stands out and brims with raw talent. The young filmmaker managed to draw us in with the psychology of her characters, the electrifying performances, her cinematic choices and the heightened, almost unsettling atmosphere.”
