FILMFESTIVAL

Film Castle Festival
Beesenstedt

The Filmschlossfest took place every year in the enchanted Schloss Beesenstedt . It was created and organized by filmmaker Cyril Tuschi for many years.

 

In 2012 Hennink Stöve and Monika Anna Wojtyllo ( aka Mr. and Mrs. Director) took over the organization and program planning.

 

There has been a turning point since 2017. Information on registration at www.filmschlossfest.de

 

Ps If you have a castle with a cinema and space for culture and 300 drunken filmmakers, contact us ...

 

 

2016
IT'S A STRANGER, STRANGE WORLD OUT THERE.

From May 5th to 8th, 2016 we traveled to foreign worlds.

 

In the newly tuned DCP barn cinema and on the show stage:

Im Sommer wohnt er unten (Tom Sommerlatte), Berlinized (Lucian Busse), Der Nachmahr (AKIZ), Heil   (Dietrich Brüggemann), Der Bunker (Nikias Chryssos), the latest episode Projekt Schooriil (Anne Haug and Melanie Schmidli), a presentation of Datenstrudel (Jörn Hintzer) and a work exhibition by Jan Soldat and much more.

 

In the wellness wing next door: epicurean delights, a gala dinner, dance music in three flavors (DJ Manu Hendry , D-Trick Beee aka Dietrich Brüggemann himself at the Bechstein  and DJ Starfish aka Sven Wegner) supervised themed saunas, detox yoga and a glamorous Costume ball.

 

Even the youngsters were lovingly cared for this year: with Veit Helmers Quatsch! in the exclusive early movie program.
