Film submission
Our submission platform is closed, unfortunately we can no longer accept any more film submissions for the 60th Hof Film Festival. In the last few weeks, we have received many exciting, innovative and moving projects. We are keeping our fingers crossed for all applicants and are working intensively on the final selection. We will inform the submitters of these as soon as possible.
We are already looking forward to the many new ideas that can be submitted again from the beginning of 2027.
