The Teddy found himself between the years after all the family dinners with a serious case of siesta urgency. Only to start the first day of the new year with a hangover, oh, what do I say, Hangover III.

But now he is on the jump and ready to start into the film festival with refilled energy reserves! And energy it will need, also in this year. Because once again more than 40 movies with queer content will be screened at the Berlinale while several cultural events take place – and for sure the best parties of the festival cannot be left out! All information about the movies, the parties and the fiestas will be found on the Teddy homepage, while on this blog recent news and the TEDDY-Today pages will be published.

We wish all of you a lot of fun on our webpages and hope that siesta and hangover will be overcome until the start of the festival!

We just started preparing the 29th TEDDY AWARD – The Queer Film Award at the 65th Berlin International Film Festival (05-15^th Feb. 2015).

Just like in the years before, also the 29th TEDDY AWARD opens its family album and reminds us of outstanding queer characters. Homage will be paid to director Rainer Werner Fassbinder. This year’s artwork shows our queer icon Rainer Werner Fassbinder drawn by Rinaldo Hopf on a poster designed by cabine.

The advance ticket sale has begun. The tickets for the 29th TEDDY AWARD Ceremony are available from now on. The awards will be given away during the 65. Berlin International Film Festival on Friday, 13^th February 2015. The location of the festive awarding will be in 2015 again the Komische Oper Berlin.

At the festive TEDDY AWARD Ceremony with more than 2000 guests from the fields of art, culture, economy and politics, the TEDDY AWARD will be awarded in the categories: Best Feature Film, Best Documentary/Essay Film and Best Short Film. Also in this year, movies from all sections of the Berlinale compete for the awards. The Special TEDDY AWARD for artistic life achievements is given to outstanding personalities.

Besides of the award winners of the evening, a high class artistic stage programme will await the audience. Among many others, the Orchestra of the Komische Oper, actress and diseuse Ingrid Caven and the Austrian electro-pop group pop:sch will perform on the TEDDY stage. Your host for the evening will be Jochen Schropp.
