Highlights from the last 10 years of the Film Prize of the Robert Bosch Stiftung

The event is meant as a tribute to the foundation’s long lasting cooperation with Mirsad Purivatra, who as Director of the Sarajevo Film Festival joined the Robert Bosch Academy in September 2014 as a Richard von Weizsäcker Fellow. At the same time it looks back on the ten year-engagement of the Film Prize of the Robert Bosch Stiftung in Eastern Europe, which now continues with a new focus on the Arab world. In the presence of the producers and film makers, three outstanding films of the recent years will be presented.

Three outstanding Film Prize winners will be screened with their directors / producers present:
