Welcome to
The international association of many deaf actors, producers, directors and other professionals working in the field of film, cinema or other visual media is the guiding principle of the della AWARD 2023.
The della AWARD 2023 is directed against the lack of attention given to the achievements and works in this field and aims to properly recognize these achievements at the international level.
In particular, the della Film Festival 2023 will highlight the history of deaf filmmakers and actors and will honor some of them posthumously once. The festival will take place in Potsdam, Germany’s first UNESCO Creative City of Film. The film festival begins with a cinema day and offers a diverse range of films from around the world. The second day is followed by a gala event with a breathtaking show program in the world-famous media city of Babelsberg, the birthplace of European film. Afterwards, the della Awards will be presented.
We are looking forward to having you.

LOCATION
Thalia Kino
In 1918, the same year that the Berliner Gehörlosen Bühnenclubs was founded, the Thalia Kino Potsdam opened its doors. One of the reasons why we are happy to experience a part of cinema history together with you.
Metropolis
The Metropolis Halle is directly connected to the Filmpark Babelsberg and is an integral part of the film history of the Media City Babelsberg and Potsdam as UNESCO Creative City of Film. This is the cradle of the German film industry and remains a hotspot for the international film industry today. Which place would be more suitable for the della AWARD 2023? None? We think so too and are looking forward to the award ceremony with an international audience during the gala evening. You want to get an impression?
