From 6 to 10 November 2024, the Greenmotions Film Festival once again took place at the Kommunales Kino im Alten Wiehrebahnhof in Freiburg. We showed inspiring films on various topics related to the environment and sustainability. In addition to many films, there was a motivating workshop, a delicious food sharing buffet and exciting live discussions and video talks with filmmakers and experts. A total of 20 screenings were followed by discussions lasting 30 to 60 minutes after 13 of them. We welcomed roughly 1100 visitors over the five days of the festival. We would like to thank all volunteers, co-operation partners, sponsors and everyone who helped to make this wonderful festival possible!
Our winners this year were “Where We Used to Sleep” by Matthäus Wörle and “We Are Gaurdians” by Chelsea Greene, Rob Grobman & Edivan Guajajara in the audience award category. “Cobalt Rush” by Quentin Noirfalisse & Arnaud Zajtman won the special topic award for our topic “United in Change: Striving for a Just Transition”. The prize for the best short film went to “The Man Who Mends Things” by Ann Farcey. Our young guests also voted for “Pond” by Lena von Döhren & Eva Rust as the winner of our shorts for kids category.
