🏆A little over a week ago we hosted the very first European Wildlife Film Awards, and what a great event it was! ✨

Across the evening, we heard inspirational speeches from our sponsors, beautiful laudationes from our jury, and watched infectious smiles spread across the winner’s faces. 🥳

The following day, we watched the winning films in Germany‘s first nature film cinema and held a Q&A with the filmmakers present. The audience was able to get a special insight into what it takes to make an award winning film. 🎬

But no worries - the EWFA experience isn’t over yet! All of our nominees, aswell as the entire Official Selection 2025 will be getting their time to shine throughout the next year, with a selected film screening once a week in the .der.wildtiere.
