World Views

As the name suggests, the World Views series offers a broad selection of films from many different countries and cultures. The themes of the series are openness, understanding, tolerance and forms of dialogue that embrace diversity.

Women with and without migration backrounds, women who have experienced displacement, their families, and everyone who enjoys watching good films are invited to attend our film series World Views. The discussions that take place after the screenings – sometimes with guests – are often impassioned, lively and always based on mutual respect.

Films for children are screened twice a year.
Admission is free for all events.
