Call for Entries – Seriesly Berlin Screenings

09.05.2025

Dear creators, producers, streamers, broadcasters, right holders,

Dear friends of Seriesly Berlin,

Are you ready to showcase your boldest, freshest, most binge-worthy storytelling to the world?

Submissions for the 2025 SERIESLY BERLIN SCREENINGS are officially open!

We’re on the hunt for cutting-edge series across all genres — from daring dramas and twisty thrillers to heartwarming comedies, gripping docuseries, mind-bending sci-fi, and everything in between. Whether it’s a webseries, miniseries, procedural, or mixed-media project — if it's serialized and fresh, we want to see it.

Why SERIESLY BERLIN SCREENINGS matter:

  • They create buzz around new content in a curated, industry-facing environment.
  • They act as a bridge between creators and audience, building anticipation and discussion.
  • They give partners and platforms a way to highlight bold storytelling with real-time audience feedback.

Eligibility Requirements

  • Premiere Status: World and international premieres are preferred. German premieres are strictly required.
  • Distribution: To stay fresh, your series must not begin any form of commercial distribution or online release (TV, streaming, VOD, digital platforms) outside its country of origin before 16 September 2025.
  • Public/Press Screenings: No German sneak peeks, please. Series that haven’t been shown to the press or general audiences will be favored.

SERIESLY BERLIN SCREENINGS will take place 15–18 September 2025 — and your series could be center stage.

Ready to step into the spotlight?
