Maria Furtwängler and Florence Kasumba stand arm in arm. The two actresses, who broke up as a Tatort duo, demonstrate solidarity. And the small scene on the sidelines of the Bavarian Film-Television Fund (FFF) reception is exemplary of the mood at the festival: the situation is serious, but not hopeless. At the traditional Bayern reception anyway. All those who have received financial support from the FFF for their projects come together in the capital – and who, in anticipation of future donations, are now picking up their pretzels, a dollop of Obazdn and one or two white sausages. Currywurst is always available in Berlin.
