MEPs are currently invited to make up their minds: Which film should be awarded Parliament’s LUX film prize 2009?
Three films are in the competition, and their makers are in Parliament this Tuesday: Kamen Kalev, director of Eastern Plays (Bulgaria, Sweden), Hans Christian Schmid, director of Sturm (Germany, Denmark, Netherlands), and Christophe Rossignon, producer of Welcome (France).

A symbolic prize: film roll turned Tower of Bable
Also in Brussels today: Fatih Akin, director of Auf den Anderen Seite ("The Edge of Heaven") and lead actor Hanna Schygulla who will attend the launch of the film’s 30 language DVD version. Auf den Anderen Seite was the first LUX prize winner in 2007. Last year Lorna's Silence by the Belgian brothers Luc Dardenne and Jean-Pierre Dardenne was awarded the prize.
Crossing the language barrier
The LUX prize each year facilitates the winning film’s subtitling into all EU languages, including the adaptation of the original version for visually or hearing impaired people, and the production of cinemascope master copies for each language version, or a contribution to the DVD release.
This year’s shortlist was drawn up by an international jury. The winner will be chosen by MEPs.
On November 25, the LUX Prize 2009 will be awarded in the European Parliament’s hemicycle in Strasbourg.

In 1989, on November 9 shortly before 7pm the opening of the wall was announced. EP President Buzek said about this event: "The people to the East of the Iron Curtain only had big hearts and great determination to face the tanks. But they won! They all were also present here [in Berlin] twenty years ago when you were dismantling the wall."
Where were you? When did you hear about it and what are your memories of these days?

Two Czech signatures are already under the Lisbon Treaty - that of the Prime Minister and the Foreign Minister, the President's should follow shortly.
Reacting to the Czech constitutional court's ruling that the Lisbon Treaty is in line with the country's constitution, European Parliament President Jerzy Buzek said: "The final hurdle has now been cleared.
"The decision clears the way for President Vaclav Klaus to sign and finalise the ratification of the Treaty and I am very confident he will do so."
"The Treaty of Lisbon should now enter into force by the end of the year. It greatly enhances the powers of the democratically-elected European Parliament."
