"My Wall" - the theme of the next Berlin Today Award
The BERLIN TODAY AWARD - the short film competition sponsored since 2003 by Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg within the framework of the Berlinale Talent Campus - is entering its next round with a new purpose. In 2009, to mark the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin wall, the upcoming edition of the competition will focus on the theme "My Wall".
The top five short film ideas are to be realised by five young
production companies from all over Germany. As a new component of the
competition, the young directors are invited to Berlin for a one-month project and development phase (residency). The Berlin Today Award 2009 will take place under the patronage of German foreign minister Dr. Frank-Walter Steinmeier, accompanied by director Wim Wenders as the competition's mentor. The Berlin Today Award is sponsored by Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg and the German Foreign Office.
Call for entries: Win a residency - make a short film!
Starting now, participants of the Berlinale Talent Campus and producers from Germany can apply to participate in the realisation of one of the short film projects. (Online application and participation conditions for talents and producers at <http://www.berlintoday.de>

As part of a 'producers' meeting' to be held during the Berlinale Talent Campus 2008, 15 selected talents will have the chance to pitch their film ideas to the participating producers. The five projects that make the leap toward realisation will be produced by the end of 2008. The world premiere of the short films will take place at the opening of the Berlinale Talent Campus in 2009. Afterwards the short films are planned to be distributed worldwide in cooperation with the Goethe Institute.
