Double Success at Greenscreen

“Die geheime Welt der Tiere, Unter Wölfen” was honoured with two awards at Germany's largest nature film festival: Best Innovative Film and the main prize, the Greenscreen Nature Film award

This is the laudatio of the jury:

This film opens a window into a world that usually remains hidden. How do animals behave when we humans are supposedly not looking? They become the directors of their own home story - unadulterated, authentic and raw. They set the pace of the narrative and show themselves to be completely ‘private’. This is the great strength of this film: it brings us very close to this private life with a wink and empathy, thereby providing surprising insights. But as masterful as the animals are in front of the camera, the work of the people behind the film is just as impressive. Whether it's the elaborate post-production, the extraordinary drone shots or the perfectly positioned cameras - they set new standards in technical observation possibilities. The filmmakers' performance is outstanding on all levels, and yet their work always remains grounded and approachable. This film proves once again that there is still much to discover even on our own doorstep.

Wild Secrets nominated for the Panda Awards 2024

The Panda Awards are the highest honour in the global wildlife and environmental film industry. You could call them the Oscars of nature film.

It will be shown in October in Bristol at the Wildscreen Festival, the world's leading international festival about nature films.

Please cross your fingers that our "Secrets" will return with a nature film Oscar!
