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.
Ticket sales have started for our Opening Night, with the documentary Best in the World. Don't miss it!
AFFR 2022 opens at Theater Zuidplein with the world premiere of Best in the World by director Hans Christian Post. A revealing look beyond the photogenic image of Copenhagen, a city that threatens to succumb to its own success. Who ultimately gets to benefit from this desirable city? The screening is followed by a Q&A with the director, and the evening closes with our traditional festive afterparty.
