AFFR explores the relationship between film, cities and architecture by programming and screening architecture films and by organizing introductions and debates.
The Architecture Film Festival Rotterdam (AFFR) was established in 2000, and the foundation organized its festival the same year as the first architecture film festival in the world. Festivals also took place again in 2001 and 2003. In 2007 AFFR made a fresh start after a few years of silence. In 2009 the event expanded significantly in terms of visitor numbers and programming.
The Friday of AFFR 2021 was full of debates, Q&As and premieres in LantarenVenster. We welcomed the premieres of When We Live Alone and Speer Goes to Hollywood, and enjoyed a debate on the influence of women architects and designers in the Netherlands in light of the documentary on Charlotte Perriand, Pioneer in the Art of Living
