In our words:
Look forward to exciting films on current topics, inspiring discussions and a varied program for all age groups - all free of charge. Here you can meet people from different generations, exchange ideas and enjoy a real sense of community.
In the organizer's words:
"Cinema up close" - that's the promise of the third Stuttgart Film Festival of Generations: From September 23 to November 28, 2025, current feature and documentary films will be shown in the district and family centers. Around 70 free events will bring cinema to your immediate neighborhood.
The program includes current German and international film productions that deal with topics and future issues such as migration, inclusion, social cohesion and climate change - issues that are important for all age groups.
In subsequent audience discussions or a supporting program with selected experts from the fields of senior citizen work, age research, healthcare and youth welfare, the respective film topic is addressed and an exchange between the generations is facilitated. The aim of the film festival is to strengthen social cohesion and promote encounters and dialog between citizens, generations and cultures.
About the "Kino ganz nah" film festival
Closely integrated into the Municipal Health Conference, the public health department has been participating in the European Film Festival of Generations in Stuttgart since 2017 as part of the health promotion project "TrotzAlter: unabhängig, mittendrin". This series of events had become a permanent fixture in Stuttgart and enjoyed steadily increasing visitor numbers. The idea of an independent Stuttgart film festival focusing on social cohesion and socio-cultural issues was born. After 2023, the public health department, in cooperation with the Haus für Film und Medien Stuttgart e.V. (HFM) association, will present the annual series of events, bringing "cinema" directly to Stuttgart's neighborhoods.
Disclaimer: The screenings take place at different times at different locations. Please check the program booklet or the website for exact dates!
