Dear festival friends and colleagues,

We wish you a wonderful, peaceful and inspired holiday season with the people who are important to you.

The IFFF Dortmund+Köln draws a very active year to a close. In addition to one of the most successful festival editions, we also organised more than 50 different events throughout the year. We would like to thank all our partners and supporters for making possible one of the most productive years in festival history.

We recently cooperated with the LaDOC network on the event »Afghanistan – Women’s Voices«. The situation of women in the country is catastrophic, which is why we would like to draw attention to the ongoing fundraising campaign by LaDOC and filmmaker Sahra Mani, which directly supports women in Afghanistan. If you would like to help, you can find more information here ladoc.de/frauen-in-afghanistan/

We look forward to seeing you again in 2024 – preferably at the next festival from April 16th to 21st in Cologne.

We wish you a very good start into 2024 when we see you in Cologne.
Yours IFFF Dortmund+Cologne team
