Numerous milestone birthdays of famous filmmakers are also coming up in 2022. Werner Herzog's 80th birthday will certainly receive due media coverage. But beyond the big names, we also want to celebrate other filmmakers - young and old, in front of and behind the camera. And how better than with a film from their respective œuvre? In our new birthday calendar, we will honor a selected birthday child (filmmakers, screenwriters, actors, cinematographers, editors) every month with a suitable film recommendation. For one month at a time, one of their films will be available via Goethe-on-Demand.
