Filmforum Duisburg

Communal cinema in Duisburg

Bild: Filmforum Duisburg

A special sort of cinema: the Filmforum in Duisburg. Here you can watch films which weren't actually shot in Hollywood. In addition the cinema possesses the largest film archive in North Rhine-Westphalia and it is even possible to hire some out.

It is Josef Krings who the people of Duisburg have to thank for the oldest communal cinema in West Germany. As chair of the Culture Committee, he made it his mission in 1970 - before his time as lord mayor - to bring 'great cinema' to Duisburg. Accommodated first of all in the adult education centre building, the Filmforum was able to move in 1980 to the building on Dellplatz which had been destroyed in the war and been lovingly restored. Since 2003 it has had two auditoriums, one of which is in the so-called 'flying whale' in the atrium. It enjoys world-wide esteem because it is here that the Duisburg Film Week (Festival of German-speaking documentary films) and the international Amateur Film Festival are held. In the summer there is a cooperative venture with the management of the Landscape Park, showing films in the open air in the 'atmospheric Ruhr district' (Stadtwerke Summer Cinema).

Facts:

- 27 September 1970: 'The Cranes are Flying' is the first film to be shown
- 1980: Relocation to the building on the Dellplatz
- 2003: Completion of the 'flying whale'
