Many Berliners consider the International to be the most beautiful cinema in the city. Built between 1961 and 1964, it belongs to the most impressive buildings of “GDR modernism”. A classical movie theatre with a grand foyer, twin staircases, comfortable seating, exquisite paneling and a sequined curtain in front of the screen, the International still exudes the atmosphere of a time when it was a show-piece of an optimistic GDR culture. During the Berlinale, films from the Panorama, the Competition, the Berlinale Special and the Berlinale Classics are shown here. Selected Panorama films are premiered at the International.
