Kontinental '25 is a 2025 Romanian absurdist black comedy-drama film written and directed by Radu Jude. It stars Eszter Tompa as a bailiff in Cluj-Napoca who faces a moral crisis when a homeless man she has evicted kills himself. Its title is inspired by the Roberto Rossellini film Europe '51.

An international co-production between Romania, Brazil, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and Luxembourg, the film premiered on 19 February 2025 at the Berlin International Film Festival, where it won the Silver Bear for Best Screenplay.
