“We need a different story. I think that’s the call: to restore and to restory.”
- Robin Wall Kimmerer
Changing the conversation about rivers
River Film Fest celebrates free rivers, clean water, and freshwater life.
Each year, we present an international selection of environmental and outdoor films in cities around Europe. By sharing stories and discussing scientific insight, we want to change the conversation about rivers, and inspire action.
As rivers are threatened around the globe, biodiversity is in dramatic decline. If water is life, we better take care of it.
We know this much →
The love people have for water is real
Options for better river protection are real
Dam removal and rewilding is real

In 2016, we launched Flussfilmfest Berlin together with great European and American partners, in an exchange with the beautiful Wild & Scenic Film Festival.
Through the exchange of stories and the discussion of scientific findings, we aim to change the conversation about rivers and inspire action.
We believe that Europe needs to better protect its last wild rivers, and can do more to remove dams and other barriers.
