Film, social affairs, culture and art meet for a weekend. The film festival highlights topics that are associated with the social project "Waldhüttl" Innsbruck supporting Roma and Romjas. It is essential that the planning takes place together with the residents of the Waldhüttl. According to the principle "Culture & Art Against Poverty", a supporting program with various opportunities for social exchange is offered.
For 2025, the team and the residents of Waldhüttl plan to bring the festival to various places in Tyrol. In addition to the programs already considered, there will be the opportunity to submit short films via various platforms, which will be embedded in the daily programs.
No Entry.

Awards & Prizes

All films selected by the film curator (social experts, Romnja & Roma, film maker) will receive a certificate of recognition.
Due to the social focus of this film festival and possibly emotional film topics, we keep our distance from a conventional competition. The opportunity to celebrate life through the supporting program is all the more important to us.
