International Film Festival Held in Braunschweig
The Braunschweig International Film Festival (BIFF) is a six-day event held annually in November, showcasing over 250 films across various genres. The festival takes place at New Street 8, 38100 Brunswick.
One of the highlights of the festival is the Braunschweig Film Prize, awarded to the best acting performance in the youth category. The sponsor for this award may vary each year and is not always prominently communicated. As of 2023, the sponsor for this category is not clearly defined, with the festival awarding the Wolfsburg AG Filmpreis (or another sponsor's prize) for various categories.
To find the current sponsor's name, it is recommended to:
- Visit the official website of the Braunschweig Film Prize or the BIFF (often biff-filmfestival.de).
- Download the current festival program (as a PDF) – sponsors are often listed in the Impressum or the award dedications.
- Search the social media accounts of the festival (Instagram, Facebook, Twitter/X), as sponsor announcements are often posted in the months leading up to and during the festival.
- Establish direct contact with the festival office or the press department of the BIFF.
Other awards given during the festival include "Die TILDA" for best female director, sponsored by 60 women from Brunswick, and the "Green Horizons Award" for the best film with the theme "sustainability". The festival also features an extensive free short film program and the series "New German Films" to showcase the best local productions.
The festival's website can be accessed via www.filmfest-unsere-website.de, which opens in a new tab. Contact information for the BIFF includes phone number 0531 702 202-0, fax number 0531 70220299, email [email protected], and the website www.filmfest-unsere-website.de.
In addition to the Braunschweig Film Prize, the festival presents the German-French youth film prize KINEMA and returns to its roots with "HEIMSPIEL", showcasing films with a regional connection. An audience award, "Der HEINRICH", is presented for debut and second works by European directors.
Without access to the most recent festival program (2024/2025), I cannot provide a 100% reliable answer. Until 2023, there was no known, permanent sponsor specifically for the youth acting category – the Braunschweig Film Prize was awarded as the general festival prize in this category. If there is currently a sponsor, you can find this information on the official festival website or in the current program guide.
A quick tip for finding information: search the BIFF homepage for "Preise" or "Awards", as sponsors are usually listed there.
