The ZEBRA Poetry Film Award has established itself as the largest 
forum for the international poetry film and offers filmmakers from 
around the world the opportunity to exchange ideas and define 
positions. The ZEBRA Poetry Film Award offers a platform for a 
dynamic genre within the short film, a genre which has developed into 
an independent art form somewhere between literature, film and new 
media. Various special programmes, an international colloquium and a 
comprehensive retrospective complete the 3rd ZEBRA Poetry Film Award.


'So entertaining that even people who think poetry is the absolute 
pits can't help but fall under the spell of this event', is what the 
Berliner Zeitung wrote about the last ZEBRA Poetry Film Award. It was 
an enormous success: over 800 films came from 57 countries, a sign 
that the poetry film is enjoying growing popularity worldwide.


The ZEBRA Poetry Film Award is a project of the Literaturwerkstatt 
Berlin together with interfilm berlin, and gratefully acknowledges 
the financial assistance of the Kulturstiftung des Bundes (German 
Federal Cultural Foundation) and the Goethe Institute.
