- Summary: 'We're back!' Berlinale opens with hopes for normality, Spanish-Italian film 'Alcarras' wins Berlinale's Golden Bear award Filmmakers and film fans were back on the Berlinale red carpet on February 10 as the annual cinema showcase returned to an in-person event after last year's online-only festival. Live screenings resumed in 2022 but strict COVID-19 protocols were put in place to ensure a safe environment for attendees. France's Francois Ozon opened the festival with "Peter von Kant", a retelling of Rainer Werner Fassbinder's 1972 study of love, rage and possessiveness. Eighteen films competed for the Golden Bear for best picture, with Spanish-Italian film 'Alcarras' winning Berlinale's top award.
