Európska Filmová Akadémia už vyhlásila víťaza súťaže dokumentárnych filmov za rok 2006. Snímka nemeckého režiséra Philipa Gröninga „Into great silence“ získala cenu víťaza za európsky dokumentárny film. Tento rok v porote rozhodovali režiséri Thomas Ridelsheimer z Nemecka, Adela Peeva z Bulharska a Dorota Roszkowska z Poľska. Všetkých osem nominovaných filmov si porota prezrela a následne rozhodla v Berlínskom kine Arsenal Cinema. Nemecký film hovorí o kontraste moderného života s ľudskou túžbou po pokoji. „Into great silence“ je podľa poroty úžasný film o ľudskosti a skrytom európskom pozadí. Ceny budú víťazom odovzdané počas slávnostnej ceremónie, ktorá sa bude konať v sobotu 2. decembra vo Varšave.
