As guests of the Goethe-Institut, bloggers and film journalists from 11 countries are going to the Berlinale again this February to share their impressions and analyses.
Going into its 6th popular year, the latest "Berlinale Blogger" edition has writers travelling to Berlin from Australia, Brazil, China, Egypt, Germany, Greece, Italy, Norway, Russia, Taiwan, and the UK to take a closer look at films from their countries and beyond. Each #BerlinaleBlogger is on the lookout for noteworthy stories on the big screen and behind the scenes.
How are Brazilian films represented at the Berlin Film Festival? Which interesting Australian co-productions have been invited? What expectations do Russian filmmakers have going into the Berlinale?
Jutta Brendemühl from the Goethe-Institut Toronto will look at the big picture(s) and keep an eye on trends and news as well as the top slated German films.
The coverage is rounded off with film reviews by the "Talent Press", a joint project of the Berlinale Talent Campus, Goethe-Institut, and FIPRESCI (the International Federation of Film Critics) that invites young international film critics to Berlin.
