Awards 2020
Award ceremonies
The founders – HypoVereinsbank, Bavaria Film and Bavarian Broadcasting – introduced an award for young talent at the Hof International Film Festival, in recognition of outstanding artistic achievement in a German film screening in the program of the Hof International Film Festival.
The award was replaced in the year 2012 with the German Cinema New Talent Award.
This prize was awarded since 1984 to recognize a talented young director and his or her film. The prize was endowed with film material with the intention of supporting the next production of the prize-winning director.
The EASTMAN Promotion Award was presented in 2012 for the final time. The Hof International Film Festival thanks Kodak GmbH for its 29-year commitment to young German cinema.
