As every year, during the International Film Festival Mannheim-Heidelberg the churches invite to an Ecumenical Reception. Traditionally, on this occasion the members of the Ecumenical Jury are introduced. One of the film referents of the churches will give a speech, regularly answered by festival director Dr. Michael Kötz. The regional Catholic and Protestant churches will welcome the guests, and provide food and drinks for the talks after the speeches.
