Freiburger Filmforum 2025
Film
Filmfestival in Freiburg, Germany
Freiburger Filmforum
27.5–1.6.2025
Dear Film Enthusiasts, get your calendars out and look forward to a festival week filled with high-quality films, engaging exchanges, and festival atmosphere! From May 27 to June 1, 2025, the Freiburger Filmforum Festival of Transcultural Cinema [1] will take place at the Kommunales Kino Freiburg. With numerous guests
and an extensive accompanying program, we are celebrating a double anniversary: 40 years of the Filmforum and the 10th anniversary of our Students’ Platform.
The festival addresses both contemporary and historical, socio-political and cultural topics, aiming to inspire aesthetic and theoretical engagement with diversity and cultural difference. At the heart of the festival are in-depth film discussions between the audience and the filmmakers or protagonists.
Young perspectives shape the Students’ Platform. The overwhelming response to the Call for Entries promises a rich program that is right on the pulse of the times. With the focus „Resounding Resistance,” the festival will particularly honor works that have emerged under the complex conditions of threat, violence, and displacement.
The Ateliers Varan [2], co-initiated by Jean Rouch in Paris, have been organizing documentary film workshops worldwide since the early 1980s. In the main program, the Filmforum will present a characteristic selection of films produced in the „Ateliers” ? simultaneously in Freiburg and at the Tashkent Film School [3] in Uzbekistan.
For all early birds, there is a discounted ticket available for ?55 [4] until mid-February! You can find information regarding accommodations, travel, and tickets on our website under „Service”. We are happy to assist excursion groups in finding a place to sleep (mail to students@freiburger-filmforum.de). Stay updated on Instagram [5] and
Facebook [6].
Let’s make the cinema a vibrant place of encounter and exchange. We look forward to seeing you!
