The FilmFestival Cottbus was first held in 1991 in the immediate post-reunification era and is regarded as the most important festival of Eastern European Cinema worldwide. It includes the annual representative overview of current feature film production in the whole of the East European region (countries of the former Eastern Bloc), it is internationally unique regarding the scope of the programme and diversity of countries, quality and topicality of the film selection, it has a clearly structured programme with a concentration on feature films, including short feature films and children's films.
Every year, filmmakers, producers and actors from Eastern and Central Europe meet in Cottbus. The film industry platform “connecting cottbus” plays an important role in bringing together filmmakers, producers and potential financiers. It even pushes some projects from the first idea to the actual film. FilmFestival Cottbus is a hallmark as a consumer and industry meeting alike.
