Another year of Klappe! has come and gone and, as every year, we were delighted to welcome an incredible number of creative films and filmmakers. On Friday, March 7, 59 films were shown in front of a sold-out audience at the Schauburg, all of which dealt with this year’s motto “Mut zur Lücke” in a variety of ways. From animated films, through horror and comedies, to highly emotional dramas, there really was everything for the audience.
