The Berlin Kiez Film Festival is held several times a year in alternative locations across Berlin’s diverse areas in Berlin. Recent screenings have taken place in the Nachbarschaftshaus, and the Luisa Catucci Gallery, Schillerkiez.
Hosting films in art galleries and other venues, brings two distinct art forms together and opens up film screenings to a wider audience. The Berlin Kiez Film Festival showcases films in informal and relaxed settings, inviting local communities to enjoy film screenings in alternative spaces.
Our festival highlights cinema from across the genres. Avant-garde and unconventional filmmakers get exposure and freedom of expression to show their work.
Berlin is renowned for its vibrant art scene, and we invite you to participate by submitting your film.
After the film screenings, we provide Q&A sessions, and an opportunity to engage with the filmmakers, actors, and curators. These interactive events allow for a deeper understanding of the creative process and provides a platform for exchanging ideas and different perspectives.
Members of our team include Katherine Seddon, Enrico Basta, Luisa Catucci, Curator (Art Gallery Manager), Igor Wolfango Schiaroli.
Each category's winning projects will receive awards. Selected films will be screened at the Berlin Kiez Film Festival events that are held at least three times a year. We always offer free admission to our screening events.
We support successfully selected filmmakers to participate in the festival.
