Within the framework of the Weeks of the German Language the Goethe-Institut Cyprus organised for the second time a competition for young learners of the German language aged 12–18.

The competition is completed.

Imagine you have superpowers – just like Batman, Wonder Woman, Wolverine or Hulk! What does your perfect day as a superhero look like? Show it in a short video and win some cool prizes!

Form a group of two or three and produce a short video in German language to show what makes you different from ordinary people.

These questions can help you with the task:

When do you get up?
What does your superhero costume look like?
What superpowers do you have?
How do you use them to help?
Who do you help?
How do you sleep?
Where do you live as a superhero?

A jury has selected the best entries. There were great prizes for the winners.

The closing date for entries was 9 November 2023.

Congratulations to the winners!
