🛸 Berlin Critics’ Week (Woche der Kritik) is organizing film screenings and debates in parallel with Berlinale since 2015 and is coming to Bucharest for the first time!

🌪️ Petra Palmer and Dennis Vetter, from the WdK artistic directors’ collective, have created an exclusive film program to spark a debate about film aesthetics among guests from the local film culture. The screening consists of two premiere films, by two filmmakers, both internationally known for their bold stylistic choices.
