45. Grenzland-Filmtage International Film Festival
During the almost 45 years of its existence, the Grenzland-Filmtage Selb International Film Festival has established itself far beyond the borders of its Franconian hometown. Thanks to the laid-back atmosphere, audience and filmmakers alike feel welcome and are enamoured with the festival year after year.
Audience members get the chance to talk to the filmmakers about the movies they just watched, right there and then at the movie theater, in the most relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Questions can be asked and opinion exchanged – leading to cheerful discussions including tasty local beer at the festival pub around the corner. An annual focus in the festival’s program is the support of new and emerging talents. In this way, the Grenzland-Filmtage get to present a whole new range of films. Films about borders. Films that touch you at the core.
