World Documentary Film Festival 2026: Cinema, Debate, and New Perspectives in Augsburg
When the lights are dimmed in the Zeughaus, more than just a film evening begins at the Mondiale: The Documentary Film Festival Augsburg opens a space for social issues, global connections, and collective reflection from September 25 to November 6, 2026. On October 13, the audience can expect another festival evening celebrating documentary cinema starting at 7 PM.
Documentaries with a Global Perspective
The Mondiale connects current documentaries with topics that extend far beyond the screen. It focuses on questions of socio-ecological transformation, global justice, democratic futures, and communal living in the city. The program for the 2026 edition includes 13 films and ranges from international crises to specific Augsburg perspectives.
Film Festival as a Space for Discourse
The special strength of the Mondiale lies in the connection between film screenings and conversation. After the documentaries, there is space for exchange, contextualization, and critical discussion. Guests from academia, film, politics, and civil society enrich the evenings with expertise and personal insights.
Festival Atmosphere in the Zeughaus
In the historic Zeughaus, focused cinematic ambiance meets open interaction. Instead of a red carpet, shared experiences, intergenerational exchange, and the search for solidarity-based solutions are at the center. Music, regional cuisine, and conversations complement the film program and make the Mondiale a cultural multi-day experience in Augsburg.
Committed Festival Organization
The Mondiale is organized by Attac Augsburg in collaboration with local initiatives such as the Eco-Social Project, Solidarity Agriculture Augsburg, and Augsburg in Citizen Hands. This broad coalition anchors the festival in the Augsburg civil society and shapes its participatory character.
