The 74th annual Berlin International Film Festival, usually called the Berlinale, took place between 15 and 25 February 2024 in Berlin, Germany.[1] Kenyan-Mexican actress Lupita Nyong'o was named the Jury President for the main competition.[2][3] This year's Berlinale was Carlo Chatrian and Mariette Rissenbeek's final edition in charge, following their dismissal in 2023.[4] The festival opened with Tim Mielants' Small Things like These.[5][6]
Dahomey, directed by French-Senegalese filmmaker Mati Diop, won the Golden Bear, making it the second year in a row that a documentary won the festival's top prize, following On the Adamant's win in 2023. The Silver Bear Grand Jury Prize was awarded to A Traveler's Needs by Hong Sang-soo, and the Silver Bear for Best Leading Performance was awarded to Sebastian Stan for A Different Man.[7][8] American filmmaker Martin Scorsese was awarded with the Honorary Golden Bear.[9]
