The story behind it
Started in the early 1960s, the festival was created to foster cultural exchange between Germany and its northern neighbors. Lübeck's Hanseatic legacy and proximity to Denmark make it a fitting home for this film event. Over decades it has become a respected forum for Nordic film, contributing to the city's cosmopolitan cultural identity.
