5th European Minority Film Festival

The EMFF is a film festival on a European level for feature films in minority languages, which means those authochtonous small nations and minorities in particular without a so-called kin-state in the background. These are e.g. the Frisians in the Netherlands and Germany, the Sorbs in Germany, the Sami in Scandinavia, the Welsh, Scottish and Cornish in Great Britain, Sinti and Roma, Rhaetians in Switzerland, Basques and Catalans in Spain or Bretons in France.

Within the framework of the festival five chosen feature films, all with English or German subtitles and all from different regions, will be shown on three evenings. Among these films an independant Jury will vote the winner of the European Minority Film Award. The jury consits of Prof Elin Fredsted (DK), Miren Aperribay (E) and Onno Falkena (NL).

The festival is aimed at the cineastic minded people from North Friesland and other regions in Europe where small nations are situated. As guests actors and directors of all movies are invited.
