“It’s a big deal, it brings tears to my eyes.” These are the words of Maria Katsikadakou, better known as Maria Cyber, speaking about this year’s edition of the Thessaloniki International Documentary Festival (TIDF). Renowned as one of the first lesbian activists on the Greek LGBTQI+ scene, she has served as an adviser for the 2024 festival’s extensive (and timely) celebration of LGBTQI+ documentary cinema, entitled Citizen Queer. To say she’s excited about it would be an understatement. “I feel over-the-top happy, enthusiastic, and excited to be part of it,” says Katsikadakou of her consultan...

In Genf ist das Internationale Filmfestival und Forum für Menschenrechte (FIFDH – Festival du film et forum international sur les droits humains de Genève)eröffnet worden. Die Festspiele setzen den Fokus darauf, den Film mit dem Diskurs über weltweite Menschenrechtsverletzungen zu verbinden. Vom Ukraine-Krieg bis zum Nahost-Konflikt und darüber hinaus.

Die Co-Direktorin der FIFDH-Redaktion, Laura Longobardi, sagte gegenüber Euronews, dass es momentan in der Welt nichts zu feiern gebe, wenn man sich die Menschenrechte ansehe. Aber man sei davon überz...

For 10 days, every year in March, Geneva raises the profile of human rights with the FIFDH, a festival that combines cinema and debate on human rights violations around the world. From Russia to Palestine, global conflicts and struggles are countless and intensifying.

Amidst the glitz, tension and controversy of this year’s Berlin Film Festival was a small cabin, located a stone’s throw away from the red carpet. Walk towards it and you could see a rather apt sign on the side of the wooden hut: 'Tiny Space'. The project, conceived by Shai Hoffmann and Jouanna Hassoun, who have Israeli and Palestinian roots respectively, invited festival attendees to discuss and debate the contentious issue of the war in Gaza inside the intimate location. The meetings with changing participants didn’t have fixed beginnings or ends, but instead allowed interested parties to dr...

Five minutes into Austrian directing duo Veronica Franz and Severin Fiala (Goodnight Mommy, The Lodge)’s third feature Des Teufels Bad (The Devil’s Bath), you know this period piece is not going to be an easy watch. And for good reason. Upper Austria. 1750. A punishingly bleak prologue sees a mother traverse the woods, and head towards a waterfall. There, without batting an eyelid, she throws her screaming infant off the ledge. She then heads to the church, knocks on the door, and turns herself in to the authorities. “I have committed a crime.” She is executed. More precisely, she is decapitat...
