Notes/description: Founded in the 1960ties "Werkstatt" is still the place to meet for all people between 12 and 26 years old who make films or who like to watch films made by young people. The 4-days event offers films, discussions and workshops. The whole event takes place in a congress hotel out in the green, where most will be screened and all participants have their rooms and meals. One night the whole event will be carried by busses to the city centre in Wiesbaden where a Saturday night film programme willl be screened at Germany's most beautiful cinema, the Caligari FilmBühne. Please note: "Werkstatt" is not a full service international, therefore it does not offer translation etc., but international participants are always welcome.
