Berlin Media & Film Studies

Overview

The history of cinema in Berlin goes back to the first moving pictures at the turn of the century and it’s still home to the world’s oldest working film studio!  Countless blockbusters have been shot in and around the city, which hosts an international film festival.

There are exciting opportunities here for Film & Media students, including a tour of a TV & radio broadcaster and a workshop on the power of the press at the outstanding Museum für Kommunikation!  Why not round off your visit with a fun-filled day at Filmpark Babelsberg?
