The Landesfilmfestival Berlin / Brandenburg is an annual film festival organized by the Video- und Filmverband Berlin/Brandenburg e.V., often supported by the Bundesverband Deutscher Film-Autoren (BDFA). It typically takes place in the autumn, with a focus on short films, and awards prizes in various categories, including the opportunity for winning films to advance to federal competitions like the DAFF or UNICA via the Ostinale. The festival also highlights digital film submissions and aims to provide a platform for filmmakers in the region.
