Festival planner 2018: time for film festivals!

The jury of the Grimme Prize 2025 has announced its award winners - among them are the MOIN-funded series "Festmachen" by Hilke Rönnfeldt and "Player of Ibiza" by the "Die Discounter" team Bruno Alexander, Oskar Belton and Emil Belton. The Documentary "Total Trust" by Jialing Zhang was also honoured.

A strong start to the new year: the High End Committee of the MOIN Film Fund awarded around 3.6 million euros to 13 projects in its first funding session in 2025. These include a supernatural love story by Fatih Akin with around 40 days of filming in the funding region and Lars Jessen's "Walk to Syracuse" with Charly Hübner.

Three MOIN-funded productions will celebrate their world premieres at the 78th Festival de Cannes in May: As announced today, Fatih Akin's new feature film "Amrum" will be shown in the prestigious "Cannes Première" section. Romeria" by Carla Simón will screen in the official competition and "Once Upon a Time in Gaza" by Tarzan and Arab Nasser in the Un Certain Regard section.
