Someone once asked, what’s so good about a goodbye? And today, as the Teddy team is saying it on the last day of Berlinale, we can whole-heartedly say that it’s a good goodbye because we’re grateful to have had the chance to experience this wonderful event with all of you Teddy fans, helping us in contributing for more tolerance acceptance, solidarity and equality in society.

A lesbian obsessively but tenderly relives the night she has just spent with a straight woman which has gone nowhere, just like the cul-de-sacs of San Francisco that seem to reflect her own unfulfilled expectations.
Young men, scattered and defenceless, captured on Super 8 film. Jean Genet’s thoughts on desire, isolation and the threat of death, visualised in Constantine Giannaris’s restless cinematic delirium.
A radical, multilayered study of homophobia and an exuberant celebration of queer life. This experimental musical is a queer classic from John Greyson.
In four short films, three women and a transgender man from New York talk about their sexuality. The subjects unfiltered testimonials turn their “female misbehaviour” into a demonstration of female self-empowerment.
Stories from the lesbian subculture in West Berlin, about being in love, clichés, desire, and conflict – “shot as a narrative, with real lesbians at real locations about real feelings”.
This film is a touching study of a microcosm which represents an entire society; a human mosaic of personal and political stories in which smouldering conflicts and heated discussions come together to form a multifaceted whole.
Based on true events, Isabel Coixet’s film makes use of black-and-white images and letters for her empathetic rendition of the story of Elisa Sánchez Loriga and Marcela Gracia Ibeas, who tied the knot in the church of San Jorge in A Coruña in Spain in 1901.
The difficulties of cutting ties and growing new roots vividly cut through the screen in this film. A tragicomic puzzle that wisely knows how to keep its secrets.
