Autumn in Hamburg is Filmfest time again: 19 MOIN-funded films and series are on the programme at the 32nd Filmfest Hamburg. Among others: the German Oscar candidate "The Seeds of the Sacred Fig" by Mohammad Rasoulof, "Der Buchspazierer" with Christoph Maria Herbst and "The Outrun" by Nora Fingscheidt.
Helge Albers, Chef of MOIN Film Fund Hamburg Schleswig-Holstein: „This year, Filmfest Hamburg is presenting a multifaceted and impressive program. We didn't expect any other debut from the new festival director Malika Rabahallah - congratulations! We are particularly excited about the German premiere of Mohammad Rasoulof. This important work has already wowed the international audience in Cannes and will certainly also impress in Hamburg. The Hamburg series “Schwarze Früchte”, which won many hearts at its world premiere in New York, can now also be celebrated in its home country. The Hamburg Film Festival will be MOINumentally good!
