Every year the Fantasy Filmfest tours Germany and every year it offers its viewers a unique mix of genre films that cannot be seen anywhere else in German cinema. With a program of breathless thrillers, obscure SciFi dreams, hard horror shockers and soulful art house pearls, the Fantasy Filmfest has been THE alternative to the superhero mush in mainstream cinema for 36 years. Fantasy here does not stand for dragons, fairies and enchanted forests, but for imagination, innovation and bizarreness. Films that step out of line, attract attention, demand and overwhelm, break with conventions and provoke.
