The 13th Göttingen International Ethnographic Film Festival will take place from 4 to 8 May 2016
The festival promotes documentary cinema with a special emphasis on new films, videos or interactive media (published after 1.1.2013) dealing with socio-cultural processes in a wide sense of the term. The festival is open to all filmmakers, but aims especially at films with a background from anthropology, sociology, folklore, history etc. It provides a great opportunity for the exchange of ideas and co-operation in documentary on an international level.
The Festival has a new partnership with the University of Koblenz-Landau. Therefore, a selection of the films will be presented May 5-6 at Koblenz.
