The Ger­man Film and Tele­vi­sion Acad­e­my Berlin (DFFB), found­ed in 1966, is one of the most promi­nent film schools in Europe. Focus­ing on the essen­tial crafts of film­mak­ing, the school offers five spe­cial­iza­tions: Screen­writ­ing, Cin­e­matog­ra­phy, Direct­ing, Pro­duc­ing and Edit­ing & Sound. The DFFB is a place where young film­mak­ers from Ger­many and abroad come togeth­er to tell sto­ries and to make cre­ative and inno­v­a­tive films.
