75 years of the Berlinale, 75 years of ARD, 21 years of ARD BLUE HOUR: ARD traditionally welcomes filmmakers, actors and presenters to the ARD BLUE HOUR on the opening weekend of the Berlinale. ARD Programme Director Christine Strobl and ARD Degeto Film Managing Director Thomas Schreiber invited them to the Berlin Telegraphenamt in February. The get-together is the meeting place for the creative industry in Germany, which – like ARD – is committed to innovative perspectives and high-quality storytelling. We were once again responsible for conceptualising and organising the event.
