The Berlin Film Festival's closing ceremony is about to begin at the Berlinale Palast where competition winners will be announced. This year's festival was Tricia Tuttle's first at the helm. Events began on February 13 with a screening of Tom Tykwer's latest The Light.

Blue Moon, Ethan Hawke's latest collaboration with Richard Linklater, was met with cheers at its Berlin Film Festival world premiere.

When director Richard Linklater brought his Before Sunrise to the Berlinale in 1995, little did he know that he was kicking off what would become a veritable tradition. The film starred Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy as two young students who meet on a Eurail train and enjoy a romantic walk-and-talk through the streets of Vienna before day breaks.
