Films

The vast majority of ZFF films are screened in their original language with subtitles (German and/or English, French) to enable hearing-impaired viewers to follow the dialogue. Since 2017, participation for visually impaired people has also been made possible: In cooperation with the organisation "Regards Neuf", German-language films are now offered with audio description.

For questions regarding barrier-free access at the ZFF, please contact us by email or phone. We're also there for you personally at our Help Desk during the festival.
