program

Each year the festival shows over 100 short and feature films on seven screens. The program focus is on current cinema productions from north-western Europe. Because of its extensive series of current British films, the Emden-Norderney International Film Festival has been a sponsor of British film productions in Germany since 1993. New films from German-speaking countries, portraits of directors and actors, short films and a children's and family program complete the range of films. A large part of the program will be shown in German for the first time, and numerous films will be subtitled for the festival. In addition, workshops, film talks, panel discussions and gala events for the opening and the award ceremony complete the program.

In 2014 over 24,000 spectators attended the festival. Festival director is Rolf Eckard.
