the Sehs?chte-Filmfestival awaits your films again!
The 51st edition of the Sehs?chte International Student Film Festival, one of the biggest film festivals for young filmmakers in Europe, will take place between 20 and 24 April 2022.
After an unusual yet successful anniversary edition, Sehs?chte looks ahead. Under the motto RADIANCE, the festival puts its faith in the irrepressible radiance of a new generation of filmmakers – and in the festival as their catalyst.
As every year, Sehs?chte gives a home to courageous, young cinema in its 51st edition. New, previously unheard ideas, perspectives and attitudes are to be carried from Babelsberg into the world and illuminate the festival landscape as a shimmering sea of light. We place our full conviction in the power of the cinema screen to capture the future of film already now and to immerse the audience in its splendor.
Fifty years lie behind us, many more ahead. The flame is blazing, now Sehs?chte 2022 carries its glow wherever it takes us.
