Senftenberg
International Film Festival
Closing : 22nd February 2017
Festival: 24th - 26th March 2017
The festival has two elements. The
international part is based on a different theme each
year. For 2017 the theme is
Passion. We are looking for films,
that show passion, it doesn`t matter if in a club, or in a team, in a job or even in a hobby.
There is also a celebration of one-minute movies to which
only German film makers can send entries.
The festival takes place in Senftenberg which lies
roughly mid way between Berlin and Dresden. The
Senftenberg club has been organising competitions and
festivals since 1982. Each festival celebrates the culture
of the selected country or region in film, song, dance,
food and drink.
