67th Berlinale International Film Festival

















One of the top three festivals in the World (the others being Cannes and Venice) is more serious and political than the others. However due to its time slot, it doesn't get the big films that Cannes gets. Instead Berlinale gets to pick from big Hollywood films that gets released late in the year for award considerations. It's the only one of the three festivals open to the public.
