Obscura Filmfestival Berlin

Berlin, Germany


International film festival of entertaining, fantastic and arthouse free genre films.

The Obscura Filmfest was founded by David Ghane in 2016 and has been run by him alone ever since. He is a passionate genre film fan since 1996, attends several film festivals per year since 2004, sometimes helps out there, acts as an extra in horror films and is an extreme film collector.

The Obscura Filmfest specialises in entertaining and fantastic B-movies, films that are rarely shown in cinemas. They show mostly big blockbusters or arthouse films that can be found at most other ordinary film festivals. Even comparable festivals are expanding their programmes to include more and more arthouse. Those who instead like entertaining, smaller and special independent films, but can also imagine bigger productions from far away countries, will find what they are looking for at the Obscura Filmfest: Films that are fun with rough edges, raw and uncompromising; from nasty little horror films to Asian battle epics, there is something for every fan, just no boredom.

It started with small, offbeat, trashy and depraved underground grindhouse films, meanwhile the Obscura also screens commercial, mid-sized films that are traded on the big film markets.

Highlights of the previous festival editions included the German premieres of the Argentinian fantasy sci fi cyberpunk action film "Daemonium", the Ukrainian thriller "Egregor", the Filipino zombie shocker "Day Zero", the Danish horror film "Finale", the ghost comedy "Deadtectives" and the two Backwoods films "What the Waters Left Behind" and its sequel "Scars" 5 years later.

The European premieres of the Indonesian comic superhero film "Valentine" and the Backwoods film "Drifter" were also screened.

Another highlight was the crazy Japanese splatterfest "Kodoku - Meatball Machine" which can look back on a long festival history including the biggest festivals of its kind, as well as the Universal/Blumhouse production "The Hunt".

With "Redbad" and "The Great Battle", two big battle epics were also screened at the Obscura.

The German premiere of the hard-hitting exploitation film "Trauma" in Hanover was even attended by visitors from the Ruhr area.
After its international premiere at the Obscura, the cowboy backwoods film "Lasso" was shown a few months later at the famous british Frightfest.

In 2022, the Obscura had its first two feature-length film world premieres with "All through the Hall" and "Hidden in the Woods II".

At each Obscura there were film guests who introduced their film in person and were available for a Q&A. They came from Ireland, UK, Belgium, Finland, Denmark, Spain, Greece, Hungary, USA, Argentina, Mexico and of course Germany.

Szczecin Film Festival

Szczecin, Poland


Szczecin Film Festival is a film event, a forum for meetings and cooperation in the field of film, directly on the Polish-German borderland. The festival is organized by the Polish OFFicyna Association, located at 3-4 Lenartowicza Street in Szczecin (71-445), Poland. The festival program is carried out in partnership with a Polish-German network of organizers, and presented in Szczecin/Poland.

The main goal of the European Competition for documentary films at Szczecin Film Festival '21 is to seek out films that broaden the concept of documentary cinema and break its stereotypical image. Each year, the competition presents several dozen carefully selected titles. The chosen documentary films are a cross-section of works that stand out against the background of tired formulae and seemingly played-out topics. Creators known by few and film veterans alike will have a chance to confront their productions with the opinions of the jury and the festival audience. Thanks to the availability of technology and the ease with which people can communicate globally, we can enjoy an innovative and exciting cinema that abolishes our prior perception of a documentary film and broadens our horizons.

The films presented at the festival are selected by a Polish-German Selection Team. Its members search for productions that cross the formal boundaries and exhibit an unconventional approach to reality – productions that are documentary trailblazers. Premieres are considered especially significant. Awards are given by an international jury, which is assembled by the organizers. Apart from film screenings, a relevant and characteristic part of the European Competition are discussions with the presented films' creators.

FEATURE FILMS: 52 minutes minimum
FORMAT: Fiction, Animation, Documentary
COPYRIGHT: 2018 and after

THEME: Transitions - Science – Society
Humanity is on the move and scientific questions are becoming key aspects of society. We are facing new challenges (environmental protection, technology, health...) and the scarcity of planetary resources is forcing us to change our way of life. New technological developments, from the digital era to the quantum computer, from Human enhancement to Space exploration, force us to rethink our place in the world. All these transitions are profoundly changing us and our models of society. And they all invite us to build the future together, regardless of origin or gender.

The FLEURANCE FILM FESTIVAL wishes to highlight these themes through films, showing how science can contribute to the transitions we are facing.

International Female Film Festival PETRA

Belgrade, Serbia


The first edition of the International Female Film Festival Petra will take place from 8 – 11 December 2022 at the The Cultural Centre of Belgrade Movie Theatre.

The Festival is established to celebrate women’s filmmaking, women authors and films exploring women’s topics. It will feature women directors from around the world and present feature and documentary films.

The special guest of this year’s Festival is Maria Lea Evarsdottir from Reykjavik, Iceland, a producer who has inspired the director, screenwriter and producer Natalija Avramović to make the first international female’s film festival in Serbia. Natalija took part at the Reykjavik’s RVK Feminist Film Festival, and inspired by the wonderful experiences from the country of ice and fire, decided to take this leap of faith.

The name PETRA symbolizes a strong woman who can do anything she sets her heart to. It originates from Ancient Greek „Πεтρα“ meaning rock, stone. In other words, Petra is a woman of stone, determined, firm, unflinching, a strong-willed woman, woman warrior.

In her debut feature film, SPRING POEM, Natalija named her leading protagonist Petra. This is an exceptional, original character, a woman of flesh and blood who, despite difficult circumstances, manages to rise out of the ashes and score a decisive victory, primarily over herself.

Natalija is preparing two other films about Petra, which will form a trilogy together with the Spring Poem. Each film creates a separate story and deals with different issues. The second feature film is an epic story about a fatal love, while the third one will bring us back to the roots of the fairy tale-like, but cruel childhood of Petra.

Onwards, to many years to come, with PETRA!

The Festival slogan – A WOMAN IS A SYMBOL OF A STRONG WOMAN
