The acclaimed documentary "NZA", directed by Yuval Abraham and Rachel Shor, continues its remarkable international journey by securing three prestigious nominations at the 39th European Film Awards.

Announced at the Pallas Theatre in Thessaloniki during the city's international film festival, the film earned nods in the categories of Best European Film, Best Documentary, and Best Sound. This achievement follows a wave of global recognition, including a Special Jury Prize at the Venice Film Festival and a staggering 1.5 million viewers worldwide.

Prominent entertainment publication Deadline recently praised the project as a "shattering investigation," highlighting a rare feat where all five documentary nominees also secured slots in the Best Film category. The field this year is led by Pawel Pawlikowski’s historical drama "Fatherland" with 11 nominations, followed by the Spanish feature "La Bola Negra" and the Romanian Golden Palm winner "Fiord".

The winners will be announced during a gala ceremony scheduled for January 16, 2027, at the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center in Athens.
