Europe’s top event for independent cinema, ÉCU – The European Independent Film Festival announces its 2022 award-winning film, including its highest honour, “Europe’s Best Indipendent Film”.

After two online-only editions, we were thrilled to finally be able to come back in person and see the joy in filmmakers’ and film-lovers’ eyes. With 58 films from 24 countries participating to the festival this year, ÉCU 2022 ended its indie-packed festival with its established final ceremony recognizing 26 award winners in 14 categories.

For the last 17 years, ÉCU has been helping to launch and expand the careers of many talented independent filmmakers. The Festival is extremely proud to assist these passionately driven artists who create incredible cinema without the benefits of large production budgets. ÉCU’s mission to discover and promote extraordinary independent films from around the world renders it a major European cultural event.
