Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
dear movie friends,
shortly before the beginning of the UNICA 2017 in Dortmund, we want to inform you about some very important programme details and kindly ask you to read this newsletter attentively.
A first Get together
There will be a first Get together for all guests that already arrive on Friday (4th of August 2017): The Vernissage of a photo exhibition takes place in the Hotel Vienna House Easy at 6pm. Members of the UNICA 2017 hosting team are also involved in it. We are looking forward to a relaxed grill evening at one’s own charge in the garden of the hotel after the exhibition.
Handing out of the congress-documents
We await you in your hotel on Saturday, the 5th of August form 2pm to 4pm, in the region of the reception and will hand out your congress-documents. You will therefore not have to wait at other counters. This applies to our three congress hotels Vienna House Easy, Days Inn and IBIS Styles.
Guests that are not staying at one of the three congress hotels and will directly come to the festival opening at the townhall of Dortmund, will get there congress-documents there. The doors open at 5:15pm. The address:
Bürgersaal des Rathauses der Stadt Dortmund
Friedensplatz, D-44122 Dortmund
Please watch out for the blue UNICA posters.
The townhall has an underground carpark, driveway of the Südwall.
We can only hand out congress-documents without bag inside the townhall because of reasons of space. You will get the bag on Sunday at our information counter at the Colliery Zollern (next to the checkout at the entry)
Tickets
You can find your tickets for the booked events in your congress-documents. Please absolutely take your tickets with you to the events and trips, because the service providers control the inlet and bill the performances with it.
Schedule of the hotel transfer
The schedule of the hotel transfer will be available for a download on our website unica2017.de/downloads a week before the start of the festival. On the 5th of August we will be driving from the three congress hotels Vienna House Easy, Days Inn and IBIS Styles (not from the Colliery Zollern) at 5pm and will bring you to the townhall of Dortmund. At about 11pm we will bring you back to the hotels.
Please be aware of the departure times at all days. The busses will not wait, they will depart at the given time. All hotels will call a taxi for you if required (at one’s own cost). Our transfer busses are not included in the congress ticket for UNICA participants but are a free service of the hosting team. There is no entitlement for transportation, especially not if the guest is late.
Guests without hotel transfer (daily individual arrival/other hotels)
Please watch out for the departure times on trip days. The busses will not wait, they will depart at the given time. Please arrange enough time for you arrival. Everybody is looking forward for good talks among movie friends if you arrive too early.
Devices for simultaneous-interpreters
If you registered for a simultaneous-interpreter device at the booking, we kindly ask you to pick it up on Sunday at the information counter at the Colliery Zollern (next to the checkout at the entry). The devices are worth around 200€ and will be lend to you by us for free during the festival week. Therefore we hope that you understand that we kindly ask you to give us one valid identification document per device as a pawn (ID, drivers license…). A refund of the device is not necessary until Saturday 3pm. A daily refund is possible until 6pm. The device has to be taken with you at your own risk after 6pm.
Guests without UNICA congress ticket and entry to the museum
All guests, that did not book a UNICA congress ticket, have to present their member ID of their film association (e.g. BDFA-member ID) with entering the Colliery Zollern. We will then pay the entry for you and your companion. All other visitors have to pay the normal entry for the museum in the amount of 4€ per person.
Jubilee commemorative publication "90 years of the BDFA" (in german)
A version of the jubilee commemorative publication will be send to all members of the BDFA. If you want to have another version, please go to our information counter at the Colliery Zollern (next to the checkout at the entry) and present your BDFA member ID. Holders of the UNICA congress ticket will get a copy for free if they want to. There is a buying price of 6€ for every other potential buyer.
Announcements and information during the festival
Please watch out for our information boards and announcements during the festival, since there can always be changes, especially regarding the starting times.
Helicopter flights
If you registered for a helicopter flight, you will find your board ticket in your congress-documents. The price for the flight (40€ per person) is not included in the congress ticket, but will be paid in cash directly to the flight team before the departure. Please pay with matching notes if possible.
Animals
Animals are not allowed in all buildings of the museum « Zeche Zollern ».
Festival of lights and firework at the Gala evening
The Gala evening will take place at the Radisson Blu hotel, that is located right next to the Westfalenpark. Our transfer busses will bring you there from the three festival hotels. The yearly Festival of lights will take place at the Westfalenpark on the same evening and will end with a firework. The firework starts at approx. 10:30pm.
We are happy, that our guests will be able to enjoy the firework. Unfortunately we will have to reckon that there will be big traffic problems at the surrounding streets. The hotel has 67 parking spots on the outside and 50 parking spots on the underground garage (all chargeable) but the access road can be blocked.
If you arrive with your own car, we recommend to be there early. Please take one of the prepared UNICAsigns from the UNICA-reception at the Colliery Zollern with you, because the visitors of the Festival of lights on the access road to the hotel could be dismissed. Please also reckon that the roads will be keep blocked for a certain time after the firework in order to protect the emanating visitors. Stay with us at the Gala evening and enjoy the dialogues with our nice guests.
We wish you a pleasant time in Dortmund, good luck for the authors, a nice entertainment and a lot of cordial meetings and talks.

Successful start-up for the “UNICA 2017“ in GERMANY
Newly founded association organizes World Film Festival in the Dortmunder industrial museum “Zeche Zollern“
Welcome to the “Initiative Multimedia Dortmund e.V.
What took place on December 13th 2015 in the Sonnenstraße 14 in Dortmund resembled a „Winter Fairytale“: The charitable club IMD e.V. “Initiative Multimedia Dortmund“, which undertakes the preparation and implementation of the World Movie Contest UNICA 2017, commissioned by the “Bundesverband Deutscher Film-Autoren“ (BDFA), was founded in less than an hour after good preparation.
“I am so proud that we were able to hold a foundation meeting that concentrated and expedient. That demonstrates mutual trust and great team spirit. A notary will manage further necessary steps“, said the newly elected president Erik Jäger. Then he grabbed his champagne glass and clicked glasses with all present.
The results in detail:
President: Erik Jäger (as well the chairman of the state association of the BDFA NRW and vice president of the Filmklub Dortmund), vice president: Monika Hornig (retired principal from Schwerte). All founding members expressed their loyalty to Klaus Piotrowski, who enjoys full confidence as the treasurer of the BDFA and for the same reason became the treasurer of the newly founded association.
Further founding members: Hans Joachim Hirschfeld (head of division, press and public relations of the Filmklub Dortmund), Dr. Peter and Dr. Véronique Hoch, Peter Hornig, Bernhard Lindner (Vice president of the UNICA and BDFA), Birgit Mölle-Weber and Manfred Weber, Barbara and Bernhard Zimmermann (international competitions of the BDFA).
Following persons were absent at the foundation meeting: Klaus Werner Voß (president of the BDFA and chairman of the Filmklub Dortmund) as well as Hans Berenberg (treasurer of the Filmklub Dortmund).
The participants of the event especially enjoyed the surprising appearance of Bernhard Lindner, who is the vice president of the UNICA and of the BDFA. He decided short-term to follow the invitation in order to appear personally. He signalled his loyalty and full support towards the club by travelling nearly 500 km to Dortmund. The participants responded with high esteem, respect and thanks towards Bernhard Lindner.
The club will have a constituent meeting at the beginning of January 2016. Shortly afterwards the club invites you to the first official meeting. Time, place and tasks of the meeting will be announced timely.
Everybody, who wants to support the organization and planning of the UNICA 2017 with their talents and skills, is welcome. The membership in the BDFA is not a requirement but team spirit, fun and endurance in implementing common aims are required.
