Overview
The Lübeck Nordic Film Days (Nordische Filmtage Lübeck) is Germany's only film festival entirely devoted to cinema from the Nordic and Baltic countries, making it the most important showcase for Scandinavian and Baltic films outside Scandinavia. Founded in 1956, it presents feature films, documentaries, shorts, series, and immersive works annually in early November, serving as a key meeting point for the film industry in Germany and northern Europe. The festival is notable for launching the careers of renowned directors like Bille August, Lasse Hallström, and Aki Kaurismäki, and for its strong emphasis on young talent and children's programming.
