Film Festival

This year's Film Festival Mathematics – Computer Science takes place from November 21 to 28, 2026. More program information to come. 

Every year, the Heidelberg Laureate Forum Foundation hosts the week-long Film Festival Mathematics – Computer Science at the Karlstorkino Heidelberg. An open invitation is extended to anyone interested in immersing themselves in the world of mathematics and computer science. Special guests introduce the films and are available for a Q&A session after the screenings.

The Film Festival Mathematics – Computer Science is held in cooperation with the Karlstorkino in Heidelberg, which received the “Cinema that Educates” award in 2020 and was runner-up in 2019. Among other accolades, it was praised for “unusual topics in selection of films”, explicitly for the Film Festival Mathematics – Computer Science.
