A new website for expressive.tv

Our previous website had been online since 1997 without major changes. So after ten years, we thought it might be time for a major overhaul.

We tried to make our new website modular, friendlier, more news-oriented and easier to navigate. Here it is - we hope you like it!

These are some screenshots of our websites eight years ago, four years ago, and today.

We've been following the guidelines of the Anybrowser campaign. So we're not telling you what browser or what resolution this site is "best viewed with". However, your browser must support CSS to properly display our new pages - all modern browsers do that. Other than that, we've kept everything pretty simple, accessible, and hopefully compatible. If you experience any difficulties reading or navigating our site, please let us know.

FFF Bayern Director Ben Kempas and Producer Joachim Schroeder (Preview Production) received a € 30.000 grant from Bavarian FilmFernsehFonds for their latest documentary project UPSTREAM BATTLE (a.k.a. SALMON LIFE, working title). This long-term film follows Native American tribes and an energy corporation in their fight over fish, sovereignty, and seven hydroelectric dams.
