An exploration of the possibilities of nonhuman perspectives in cinema. By Sasha Litvintseva

Ala Younis and Ulrich Ziemons took over the head of Forum Expanded in summer 2021. In our podcast, we talk about their plans, political art and the new Forum Expanded selection.

The Berinale is taking place as a 2G-plus-mask-plus-test event. Tickets are sold online exclusively. Find out all neccessary information for your visit here.

The wealth of possibilities of which cinema is capable when it departs from established narrative forms is on full display at the 52nd Berlinale Forum.

Alongside the films showing in the main programme, the 52nd Berlinale Forum also gives audiences the opportunity to delve into film history: with the continuation of the “Fiktionsbescheinigung” series, with newly restored historical films and with a cinematic portrait of Forum founders Ulrich and Erika Gregor.
