Screenings will be accompanied by meetings and discussions with audiences, who remain the most important critics in the eyes of the German Film Academy (which organises the event in collaboration with the Ministry of Culture).

Alongside the Lola Festival, the Lola Mobil minibus tour will offer further opportunities for interaction between filmmakers and viewers. Moreover, as part of Lola Visionen on April 20, the professionals behind the six Best Film nominees (Uli Edel, Dresen, Gallenberger, Caroline Link, Yildirim and Jerichow producer Florian Koerner von Gustorf) will gather in Berlin for a discussion with audiences about their work and German cinema.

The Lola awards ceremony will be held in Berlin on April 24.
