Born in 1963 in Hessen/Germany, I became a theologian in 1982-1988 in Göttingen and Heidelberg and worked as a vicar in Kassel and as a New Testament Assistant in Marburg. From 1993 until today I am pastor in the „Evangelische Matthäuskirchengemeinde Bad Hersfeld“ (EKKW). Working as steward in the International CEC-Conference in Stirling/Scotland 1984 founded my lifelong ecumenical passion. Latest experiences with big meetings in Sept. 2022 (steward in the WCC Assembly Karlsruhe) and June 2023 (steward in the Special Olympics, Berlin). I love cinema since I saw „Ben Hur“ at the age of 11, four hours on wooden seats in our local village-cinema. In our Bad Hersfeld Cineplex we offer regularly the event „Kirche im Kino“ (Church and Cinema), introducing 9 films per year.

In his retrospect of the festival, Peter Paul Huth highlights, above all, the films in the Cannes Classics series.
Die Preisverleihung in Cannes endete mit einer Überraschung. Paweł Pawlikowski mit „Fatherland“ und Ryusuke Hamaguchi mit „Soudain“ waren die Favoriten, die beim Ranking der Kritiker in Führung lagen, dicht gefolgt von Andrej Svjagincev mit „Minotaur“.
