“German cinema is very strong and vital. It was inconceivable to me that new films from one of Europe’s most prolific filmmaking nations would not have its own dedicated event, so we have curated a fine selection of German productions for our audiences nationally in collaboration with German Films and Goethe-Institut. All films will be Australian premieres", sagt Antonio Zeccola, der Leiter von Palace Cinemas.
Das Goethe-Institut, das das Festival in Australien 15 Jahre lang veranstaltet hat, wird das neue Festival also unterstützen und begrüßt auch den Neubeginn.
“We are happy to hand over to Palace Cinemas. We worked together for fifteen years so we know they share our love of German cinema, plus they have the experience, expertise, and infrastructure to run such a festival. We will continue to support the festival through the school screenings sidebar ‘Kino for Kids’ which will be a five-film feast for young audiences,” erklärt Sonja Griegoschewski, die Leiterin des Goethe-Institut in Australien.
