This year’s version brings films framing issues of national identity, regional allegiances, and globalization. Organized by the Goethe-Institut Washington, the Austrian Cultural Forum, and the Embassy of Switzerland, the week-long showcase, now in its 16th season, premieres ten new films in Washington with special guests and accompanying events. The festival opens with the German Film Award-winning sleeper hit Grave Decisions, a comedy about an 11-year-old boy’s plot to commit one crime to absolve himself of another.
