An award for Hamburg's cinema scene
In cooperation with the Ministry of Culture and Media, the Hamburg Cinema Awards are presented once a year by an expert jury for high-quality cinema programmes.

These are open to an extended group of applicants (all Hamburg-based providers) and are also awarded by the cinema jury.
