TreeFilmFestival
Movies
The TreeFilmFestival is unique: the first festival dedicated entirely to trees. The venue is not a cinema, but the Parliament of Trees against War and Violence, created by art activist Ben Wagin. Directly on the former "death strip" near the Reichstag, history meets the present.
Documentary films and art projects about nature, habitats and change will be shown - projected onto the Berlin Wall in the open air. The festival was curated by filmmaker and cameraman Uwe Bohrer, who has been filming trees and environmental issues since the 1970s and has accompanied Ben Wagin for decades.
