Cinema Beyond Borders: Filmmaking with Amir Naderi

4-Day Seminar with DFFB

03.02.26 - 06.02.2026

From 10:00 - 17:00 each day

Amir Naderi, one of the singular voices of transnational cinema, approaches filmmaking as an act of searching through images, memory, and movement. Drawing on decades of narrative and documentary work across cultures and geographies, he invites seminar participants to reflect on cinema as a form of personal expression, and how this leads to the development of a personal cinematic language. At the core of the seminar are shared film analyses and exchange, with a focus on authenticity, lived experience, and the emergence of a distinct cinematic voice.

The seminar will be held with students of the Deutsche Film- und Fernsehakademie Berlin and Berlin-based transnational filmmakers, with the kind support of the DFFB and Goethe-Institut in Exile. (AM)

We are offering two places in the Amir Naderi seminar to Berlin-based transnational filmmakers. Please complete the form until 22. of January to apply. The selected participants will be notified by January 26.
