The Munich Film Festival (Filmfest München) comes to a close Saturday in the Bavarian capital. The annual midsummer festival presents six series of films: Neue Deutsche Kinofilme (New German Films), Deutsche Fernsehfilme (German TV Movies), Nouveau Cinéma Français (New French Cinema), American Independents, Retrospektive (Retrospective), and Kinderfilmfest (Children's Film Festival). The films compete for eleven prizes.
I like this festival especially for it's support and showcase of new films coming out of Germany. It's not as glitzy an affair as Berlinale, but it's an event not to be missed, and one of few major festivals that take place in the summer.
I'll post the winners of the prizes after the close of the festival.
