FILMFEST MÜNCHEN is Germany's leading audience-friendly film festival 
and presents over 200 films on 15 screens ? almost all of them German, 
European or world premieres. It attracts over 65,000 film lovers each 
year as well as more than 600 members of the international press and 
over 1000 film-related professionals. As Munich is Germany's motion 
picture capital, the festival has long been a meeting place for 
industry insiders. It is this dynamic mix that makes Munich's Filmfest 
so unique. For many films screened here, Munich is a springboard to 
successful local and global distribution. FILMFEST MÜNCHEN showcases 
the world's finest contemporary films in the company of their 
directors every summer in late June in the lush, laid-back atmosphere 
of Bavaria's enchanting capital.
