Welcometo the 40th interfilm festival!
Four decades of DIY, punk and absolute madness – INTERFILM is back and celebrating: Bodies! In a world that unceasingly subjects bodies to norms and treats them like commodities, we are reclaiming them. Every wrinkle, every gesture, every imperfection is unique and writes its own (hi)stories. Like bodies, our festival has also gone through transformations of its own – it's grown, stretched, regrouped, while remaining fluid and hungry for the new. To you, our cells as it were, we provide handpicked films – vibrant, diverse and the furthest thing from monotonous.
For our 40th anniversary, we look back at our beginnings: Berlin in the 1980s – a city full of anger, thirst for action and resistance. Super 8 film had become a beloved medium among DIY artists, who told their stories in clubs, cafés and upon the Wall. "We were all dilettants, they called us ingenious." Born out of street fights, wild fashion shows and rebellious projections, INTERFILM became a platform for everything that dares to resist.
Come and experience the energy! Our screens will turn to skin, upon which all that is raw, imperfect and alive can be seen!
