European Film Academy announced the 45 films in this year’s EFA Selection, the list of films recommended for a nomination for the European Film Awards 2011. With 32 countries represented, from A(ustria) to U(nited Kingdom), the list also covers a wide range of genres and themes from comedies about love, friendship, immigration and kidnapping to dramas about childhood, dysfunctional families and national traumas, from portraits of flawed leaders, surrealist animation and historical epics to an almost silent film in black & white.
