Film Festival 2026

BEYOND offers you a long weekend full of cinematic impressions and lasting encounters.

Dear film lovers,

Look forward to four days of BEYOND with extraordinary films, exciting discussions and a genuine festival atmosphere. From 12 November to 15 November 2025, the 4th BEYOND Film Festival will take place at the KulturKino Feuchtwangen. With premieres and an extensive supporting programme, we invite you to experience a festival.

Clear dramaturgy

Each day of the festival follows a fixed structure: at 6 p.m., short films open the evening, followed by panel discussions or short lectures. The main film begins at 9 p.m.

We approach the thematic focus ‘The Pluriverse: Many Worlds - One Screen’ from different angles: On Thursday (12 November), a block of short films and the opening film will open the festival. Afterwards, refreshments will be provided for all cinema-goers. Friday (13 November) will be dedicated to comedy, while Saturday (14 November) will be devoted to political films and debate. On Sunday morning (15 November), the festival invites you to a ‘film brunch’ at 11 a.m. Sunday afternoon will then be dedicated to documentaries with a focus on young filmmakers.

On Sunday, a jury will award the winners and explain their decision to the cinema audience. Festival visitors are invited to participate in the selection of an audience award, which will be announced on Sunday.

KulturKino Feuchtwangen

It is no coincidence that the BEYOND Film Festival is now being held at the KulturKino for the fourth time. The KulturKino at Herrenstraße 3 in Feuchtwangen was completely renovated in April 2022 on the voluntary initiative of the cinema association and has since developed into a lively venue for all cineastes and culture lovers from the region. Wolfgang Grebenhof, chairman of KulturKino Feuchtwangen e. V.: "Our cinema has developed into a cultural multiplier – in and for the region. With BEYOND, we are showing how vibrant this place has become: internationally oriented, regionally anchored and open to the questions of our time. ‘Feuchtwangen meets Future.’
