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 thirteenth edition of AFFR will take place from 6 to 10 October 2021 in LantarenVenster, Theater Zuidplein and RDM Rotterdam. Under the theme More than Houses, around 85 critically selected, special and cinematographically high quality films about city and architecture from around the world will be screened.
