Evaluation The largest French-language film festival in Germany. This event attracts a lot of francophiles. The generously endowed distribution prize for the cinematic presentation of a French production guarantees the presence of numerous buyers and journalists interested in this area. Retrospectives of major French filmmakers naturally also form a component of the festival.
