The falling Covid rate in the country and positive noises from government officials have renewed optimism among organizers that the event can go ahead in an outdoor capacity. The event will screen many of the films selected for the festival, which wasn’t able to take place in February due to Covid restrictions.The main venue will be at the Museum Island Berlin, and on June 13, the awards ceremony will take place following the decisions of the official juries already made in March.
Directors of the Berlinale, Mariette Rissenbeek and Carlo Chatrian said: “We’re extremely pleased about the new concept for the Berlinale Summer Special, despite having planned it differently at the outset. Audiences will be getting a very special, collective festival experience – something we’ve all been missing for such a long time. The Summer Special is geared towards re-igniting the desire to go to the cinema, and to contributing to the revival of cultural activities with an audience.
