Each year we’re proud to work with the European Film Promotion, and to sit down with the newly unveiled cohort of the Shooting Stars programme. Each year the Efp celebrate and promote the best in European acting talent and choose ten up and coming actors to showcase. The ten actors are Gracija Filipovic (Croatia), Marie Reuther (Denmark), Anamaria Vartolomei (France), Emilio Sakraya (Germany), Clare Dunne (Ireland), Hanna van Vliet (The Netherlands), João Nunes Monteiro (Portugal), Timon Sturbej (Slovenia), and Evin Ahmad (Sweden).
They talk to Stefan Pape in Berlin about their reaction to the nomination, their drive to succeed and how their home country has inspired them on their journey.
Here are the interviews.

Just how large its top-tier offers may be, and the volume of deals, are still open for debate.
“Very compact,” said Constantin’s Martin Moszkowicz of the EFM, which swelled somewhat thanks to a flurry of title announcements on Feb. 4, followed by a steady trickle of big unveils.
“The EFM does not look like it will have the comparable volume of the AFM,” Mister Smith’s David Garrett said. “But there will certainly be enough to whet people’s appetites.”
The market has, in fact, been building for nearly a fortnight. Following the IFC Midnight/Shudder domestic deal at Sundance for “Watcher,” AGC Studios moved forward its virtual EFM buyer screenings of the genre film by two weeks, closing international with Focus Features.
