Film- und Medienfestival gGmbH

Creating creative events – the non-profit company organises top-class creative events formats in the Stuttgart region, such as the Stuttgart International Festival of Animated Film.

The Film and Media Festival gGmbH (FMF) organises the Stuttgart International Festival of Animated Film (ITFS), which takes place annually at the end of April/early May and is one of the largest animation festivals in the world.

In parallel with ITFS, the Animation Production Days (APD) are held – Germany’s leading co-production and financing market for animation – organised by FMF in collaboration with the Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg GmbH and its industry congress FMX – Film and Media Exchange. The unique combination of film festival, congress and business platform attracts many industry professionals each year to join the STUTTGART ANIMATED WEEK.

The FMF acts on behalf of its shareholders: the City of Stuttgart, Stuttgart Region Economic Development Corporation (WRS), and the Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg (representing the federal state of Baden-Württemberg).

“With our events, the ITFS and APD, we bring the animation world together in Stuttgart once a year, allowing ourselves to be inspired by moving stories, people and technologies while celebrating the art of animation. We aim to showcase animation in all its forma and diverse formats, providing filmmakers, producers, industry representatives, and the public with a place for inspiration, exchange and the development of new ideas and partnerships.”
