One of the most sought-after prizes at this year's European Film Awards, held this Saturday in Berlin, is European director of the year.
Here's a look at the six nominees.

Thomas Vinterberg is one of Denmark's most important, award-winning, and internationally celebrated directors.
His international breakthrough came in 1998 with Festen – the first Dogme 95-film – and it earned him several international awards, including the Cannes Jury Prize.
In 2012, Vinterberg won acclaim for Oscar and Golden Globe-nominated drama The Hunt, which also earned Mads Mikkelsen the best actor gong at Cannes.

Agnieszka Holland (Charlatan)
Agnieszka Holland was born in Warsaw and has directed and/or written over 30 films in her illustrious career.
Her film Fever won the Polish Film Festival. It also earned Barbara Grabowska the best actress gong at the Berlin International Film Festival in 1981.
Europa Europa, a historical war drama that came out in 1990, won a Golden Globe and an Oscar nomination.
Darkness, in 2011, saw Holland notch up a third Oscar nomination.
Her latest film, Charlatan, is inspired by the true story of herbalist Jan Mikolasek, who dedicated his life to caring for the sick in spite of the immense obstacles he faced in his private and public life. As in most of her films, the characters cross the history of the 20th century and of Europe.

A nine-year gap separates Sødahl’s breakthrough feature and Hope, a sensitive and honest drama based on the Norwegian director’s own experiences. It portrays a woman who learns that she has only a few months to live because of a tumour. Her whole life is called into question, her relationship, family and work.
Pietro Marcello (Martin Eden)
