Q&A with directors
Welcome to the Vierte Welle Film Festival, an event dedicated to celebrating and promoting diversity, inclusion and gender equality in the film industry. In its 6th edition, our festival continues to be a vital space for showcasing the talent of filmmakers from around the world who challenge established norms and explore new narratives that reflect their vision of feminism.
On 14 and 15 March 2026, attendees will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in a captivating selection of short films that address a wide range of topics, such as Berlin from a migrant perspective, various feminist Activisms around the world, the open up of new possibilities against injustice through collective resistance in Radical Care and reflections on the different ways of experiencing sexuality and engaging with the world in Queer.
We hope you enjoy the diversity of stories our festival has to offer and join us in celebrating the power of cinema to inspire, educate and drive change.
Thank you for joining us for this new edition of the festival.

Whether academic or non-academic, these stories find their place within the festival’s curatorial categories, fostering dialogue and exchange across disciplines and perspectives.
