A heartfelt thank you to all the friends and colleagues who helped us celebrate our 10th anniversary in style with a summer party in Berlin on July 20th!

The festivities kicked off at 1 PM, filled with laughter, delicious food, and amazing company. Guests enjoyed a variety of events including delicious Korean delights from Fräulein Kimchi and a captivating performance by Berlin-based singer-songwriter, Adelle Nqeto.

A wonderful company and atmosphere stretched until 10 PM, and we can't thank our guests enough for making it such a memorable day. We promise more celebrations to come!

This summer party marked the culmination of our year-long fellowship program, launched in 2023 to commemorate NNF's 10th year. The Fellowship awarded 10 director-producer duos worldwide with a 6-month intensive mentorship journey. Our goal was to foster global solidarity with non-fiction filmmakers facing vulnerability and hardship, who also shared our values.

The Fellowship program included filmmakers from Colombia, Georgia, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Iran, Palestine, Syria, and Ukraine. We will be sharing more updates via "Meet our Fellows" series on Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn so stay tuned!
