Hosts wanted: Become part of the FFDD25!

From 08 to 13 April 2025, Dresden will once again be transformed into a centre of international short film - the 37 FILMFEST DRESDEN is just around the corner! Numerous filmmakers from Germany, Europe and all over the world will be travelling to the city to present their works and exchange ideas with the audience.
In order to facilitate this creative exchange, the festival is looking for hospitable Dresdeners who would like to host filmmakers during the festival. Anyone who can provide a free room, a couch or a bed has the opportunity to immerse themselves in the world of film.
Short visit - an enriching experience for everyone! The ‘short visit’ programme offers a special opportunity for hosts and guests alike. Festival guests are always grateful for the warm welcome and the chance to get to know Dresden through the eyes of the locals. At the same time, hosts gain a unique insight into the vibrant short film scene and can network with filmmakers from all over the world.
