President Roberta Metsola awarded the 2022 LUX European Audience Film Award to “Quo vadis, Aida?” by Bosnian director Jasmila Žbanić, during a ceremony on 8 of June in Strasbourg. "This film is a strong call for justice for the women and mothers of Srebrenica who witnessed the atrocious killing of over 8,000 loved ones. Such horrendous atrocities and such a crime against humanity must never be forgotten,” said President Metsola at the ceremony, which took place in the Strasbourg hemicycle.
The winner of the LUX Audience Award – jointly awarded by Parliament and the European Film Academy, in partnership with the European Commission and the Europa Cinemas network – is selected jointly by MEPs and a European audience (each accounting for 50% of the final decision).
The three nominated films were announced on 11 December 2021 at the European Film Awards. These were: “Flee” by Danish director Jonas Poher Rasmussen. “Great Freedom” by Austrian director Sebastian Meise, “Quo vadis Aida?” by Bosnian director Jasmila Žbanić.

Representatives of the three films shortlisted for the Lux Audience award are in Strasbourg and speak about the lessons to be drawn from the stories portrayed in their movies. Statement by Sebastian Meise, director of "Great Freedom". The story unfolds during three different periods in the same prison, jumping back and forth between 1945, 1957 and 1968 (a year before the law was partially repealed "Aticle 175"), building a mesmerising narrative while offering an acute exploration of the main character and the German society during that time. LGBTQ+ and rule of law are two thematics underligned in this film.
