1st Radolfzell Film Festival
17. September – 19. September

As part of the city’s anniversary celebrations and in collaboration with filmmakers Teresa Renn and Patrick Merkle, as well as Ana Baumgart and Daniel Franz from KFZ – Kunst für Zukunft, the 1st Film Festival is taking place in Radolfzell.
For three days, it’s all about big emotions and gripping stories on the big screen. To make this happen, the KFZ – Kunst für Zukunft (Friedrich-Werber-Str. 13+15 in Radolfzell) will be transformed into an unconventional movie theater.
Under the theme “F_YOU_TURE,” a total of eight feature films and documentaries will be screened. The films focus on the stories of children, teenagers, and young adults—with all their diverse life experiences, thoughts, and visions for the future. The organizer’s goal is to provide young people with a platform for creative expression.
The film screenings will be accompanied by Q&As with filmmakers, who will introduce their films in person. Panel discussions, readings, and a film workshop for young people round out the festival’s diverse program.
