Tricia Tuttle's opening year at the Berlinale will test her ability to balance political sensitivities and the festival's commitment to free speech amid financial challenges.
The Berlinale's previous edition sparked debates about antisemitism, prompting politicians to demand assurances that such incidents won't recur under Tuttle's leadership.
Tuttle acknowledged differing perceptions of antisemitism in Germany, shaped by historical context, emphasizing the importance of recognizing diverse perspectives in cultural discourse.
The festival must navigate a tightrope of artistic freedom while addressing concerns from local lawmakers and the public about political statements in cinema.
