Japanese Films in Berlin 1963-64

[Christian Helwig]

Hi,

why don?t You ask the Berlinale-Team itself? They?re normally quite 
friendly. If there are any communication-problems coming up (which I 
wouldn?t expect) I am happy to ask them for You.

I think, these two maybe worth a try:

Kommunikation (Communications)
Leitung Anne Marburger
Tel. +49 ? 30 ? 259 20 ? 580
Fax +49 ? 30 ? 259 20 ? 539
communications at berlinale.de

Presse(Press)
Leitung/Pressesprecherin Frauke Greiner
Tel. +49 ? 30 ? 259 20 ? 737
Fax +49 ? 30 ? 259 20 ? 799

regards,
Christian
