Moderation at the Territorium Film 2016

Territorium Film will host the German-Russian Documentary Film Festival in Kaliningrad for the sixth time from 15 to 18 September. Numerous films with a northern German connection will be shown as part of the festival - we'll tell you exactly which ones here.

Northern Germany goes Kaliningrad: the cultural stronghold in north-west Russia is once again the venue for this year's non-commercial documentary film festivalTerritory Film. In addition to numerous film premieres, there will be various workshops, seminars and discussion panels to promote exchange between filmmakers from both nations.

The festival is supported by the Ministry of Justice, Culture and Europe of the state of Schleswig-Holstein as well as the Filmförderung Hamburg Schleswig-Holstein/Filmwerkstatt Kiel and the Ministry of Culture of the Kaliningrad region (Russia).
