KoKi GALERIE


Few things on Earth are as miraculous and vital as seeds. Worshipped and treasured since the dawn of humankind. SEED: The Untold Story follows passionate seed keepers protecting our 12,000 year-old food legacy. In the last century, 94% of our seed varieties have disappeared. As biotech chemical companies control the majority of our seeds, farmers, scientists, lawyers, and indigenous seed keepers fight a David and Goliath battle to defend the future of our food. In a harrowing and heartening story, these reluctant heroes rekindle a lost connection to our most treasured resource and revive a culture connected to seeds. SEED features Vandana Shiva, Dr. Jane Goodall, Andrew Kimbrell, Winona Laduke and Raj Patel.


Note: Although no entrance fee is required, it is recommended to book in advance. Choose the film session you are interested in on our Filmfreeway platform (tickets are organised per film name and follow the chronological order of our festival). There are no assigned seats.  Please come half an hour before the session. We will give away the tickets that haven’t been collected 15 minutes before the session starts.







wheelchair access / RollstuhlbefahrbarThe cinema is accessible via a ramp.
need for assistance for toilets / hilfestellungThere are also toilets accessible with a wheelchair. However assistance might be required since there are a few (heavy) doors to open to arrive to it.
The Galerie is NOT equipped with an inductive sound system. We use one microphone for the discussion afterwards. It is attached to a cable so it is less flexible. We invite members of the public to wait having the microphone before saying something.
Information about languages is provided above. We tend to provide live interpretation towards English or German when needed (it might be whispered). However live interpretation is harder to put into place when some speakers are taking part online.

No entrance fee is required. We invite our public to support the festival through a donation at the end of the sessions. You decide how much you want to give.
