Frankfurt/Main – The film prize honors outstanding filmmakers as well as newcomers.

The Newcomer Prize goes to the German-Iranian filmmaker and producer Behrooz Karamizade, as has also already been announced. The award is intended to help him gain a foothold and become visible. His production “Empty Networks” is also nominated in the feature film category.
The award ceremony also honors works in the categories of documentary, short film, screenplay and university graduation film. Who the respective winners are will not be announced until Friday evening. The winning films will be shown on Saturday and Sunday in selected cinemas in Frankfurt, Bad Nauheim, Witzenhausen and Darmstadt. dpa
