The War Blind Radio Play Prize (or simply War Blind Prize ) is the most important award for authors of German-language radio plays . This radio play award was founded in 1950 by the Bund der Kriegsblinden Deutschlands eV (BKD) and its editor Friedrich Wilhelm Hymmen . Peter Plein was one of the initiators of the award . Since 1994 the award has been supported by the North Rhine-Westphalia Film Foundation .

Statutes

The war blind radio play award is awarded annually “for an original radio play conceived and produced by a German-speaking broadcaster that realizes and expands the possibilities of the art form in an outstanding way.” The term original radio play does not include mere editing, unless an author works his own material for the other medium around or on. The radio play must have been broadcast for the first time in the previous year. The prize is awarded to the author (s).

For the Hörspielpreis the Kriegsblinden every public service broadcaster must submit two radio plays. The public broadcasters in Austria and Switzerland have also been there since 2006. The jury members can also suggest radio plays.

Since 2012, there is no longer just one award winner, but three nominations are made prior to the actual award ceremony.

jury

The composition of the jury has changed several times over the years. According to the currently valid statutes, it consists of seven critics / cultural workers who are appointed by the Film- und Medienstiftung NRW; seven war blind men appointed by the War Blind Federation and the chairman of the jury. The long-standing chairman of the jury was the initiator of the Friedrich Wilhelm Hymnen Prize. He was followed by the media journalist Uwe Kammann (1996 to 2001), the literary scholar Jörg Drews and the writer Anna Dünnebier. Cultural scientist Gaby Hartel is currently chairing the jury. The jury meeting takes place annually in one of the participating broadcasters.

price

The undoped honorary award consisted of a sculpture individually designed by a war-blind artist . In 2002, when awarding the prize, the jury decided that Dario Malkowski's hand with laurel should be presented to all future winners as recognition. Traditionally, all participating broadcasters include the excellent radio play in their programs, whereby the author benefits from the repetition fees.

Until the year 2000, the radio play prize was awarded in the Bonn plenary hall of the Federal Council. Then the award ceremony took place in irregular changes in the Berlin Federal Council, in the federal government's guest house on Petersberg , in Cologne's Wolkenburg , in the small broadcasting hall of West German Broadcasting (WDR) or at Deutschlandfunk (DLF) in Cologne.

Award winners

The year in which the prize was awarded is given. The radio plays were usually produced and broadcast in the year before the award.
