Closing night · 17 October 2026
One night in Berlin.
The online screening ends on 28 September. Three weeks later the Founding Edition closes in the room: the Audience Awards and the jury honours announced together, the 4U Grand Trophy presented, and the people who made the films in the same place for one evening.
The awards
Every winner of the edition is announced on this night — six Audience Awards, the jury honours, and the 4U Grand Trophy. Results are published on the site the same evening.
Who is there
Filmmakers from the programme, the jury, and the Berlin audience. Filmmakers holding a Premiere Pack are invited; every filmmaker in the programme is welcome.
Venue and seats
The venue and tickets for the night are announced here first, and to everyone who holds a Festival Pass. Until then, the date is the only thing to put in your diary.
