Caligari may be closed – but with us, you’ll still get to see films!
On German Unity Day, we’re bringing together two passions that rarely get to enjoy each other’s company: cycling & films!
Together with the ADFC Wiesbaden / Rheingau-Taunus, we invite you to a special bike tour featuring eight short films at five different locations in Wiesbaden.
For a long-term collaboration, we are looking for a reliable, dedicated, film-enthusiastic and creative personality to join us as Festival Programme Coordinator starting November 1, 2025.
In 2026, we will also once again be offering nine exciting internships across various departments.
