European Cinema Night
105 minutes – France / Germany / Czech Republic / Belgium 2016
Director: Olivier Assayas
Starring: Kristen Stewart, Lars Eidinger and Sigrid Bouaziz
Triskel Arts Centre is delighted to take part in European Cinema Night. For nine consecutive years, MEDIA has collaborated with the network of Europa Cinemas to present free screenings of European films supported by Creative Europe MEDIA in every Member State. It connects more than 10,000 cinemagoers, brings European films closer to citizens, while celebrating the unique richness and diversity of European culture.
This initiative and, subsequently, participating in cinemas, has considerably grown over the years. The first edition in 2018 counted 34 participating theatres; participation grew to 54 in 2019 raised to 67 in 2020 and involved no less than 71 venues in 2021. In 2022, 75 cinemas took part in the initiative and over 90 in 2025. This year, European Cinema Night counts more than 100 participating cinemas.
In 2026, European Cinema Night 2026 x MEDIA 35 Years will mark a special edition celebrating 35 years of the MEDIA programme and the richness of European filmmaking. This anniversary edition will highlight MEDIA’s long-standing support for Europe’s audiovisual sector and its continued commitment to strengthening the connection between European works and their audiences.
For this occasion, there will be a special free screening of the Olivier Assayas film PERSONAL SHOPPER, a supernatural thriller starring Kristen Stewart which celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. It is the poignant character study of a young fashion assistant living in Paris who also happens to be a spiritual medium. She is haunted by the death of her twin brother and tries in vain to make a connection with him in the afterlife. Assayas won the Best Director award at the Cannes Film Festival while Stewart received wide critical acclaim and praise for her central performance.
We are delighted that filmmaker and writer Maximilian Le Cain and Triskel’s Head of Cinema Chris O’Neill will take part in a discussion about PERSONAL SHOPPER after the screening.
This special screening of PERSONAL SHOPPER is free but ticketed. Tickets will be released at 10am on Thursday 3 December.
