Meet the international Jury of the 32nd TEDDY AWARDWe are happy to present the jury of the 33rd TEDDY AWARD, which will be awarded on February 15th in the VOLKSBÜHNE BERLIN. Seven renowned filmmakers and festival organisers will choose the laureates from the queer films of the Berlinale in the categories Best Feature Film, Best Documentary/Essay Film and Best Short Film. Furthermore, they will award the TEDDY Jury Award. Sandra Hezinová is a programmer based in the Czech Republic. She graduated in 2013 in film theory and history from Charles University in Prague. In her final thesis, she focused on the first Czech queer films from the perspective of queer theory and reception studies. Since 2015, she has worked for Mezipatra Queer Film Festival, first as a programmer, then as a program director from 2016 to the present day. At the same time, Sandra is a programmer of Karlovy Vary International Film Festival. Paul Struthers is the Director of Exhibition and Programming for Frameline, the media arts nonprofit behind the largest and longest-running LGBTQ+ Film Festival in the World, The San Francisco International LGBTQ+ Film Festival. He has received a B.A. in Media Arts from the Royal Holloway University of London, subsequently gathering over 15 years of experience in a multitude of industry roles in the UK and on the film festival circuit in Australia. He worked in marketing the Sydney Film Festival for 8 years and served as the Festival Director for the Queer Screen's Sydney Mardi Gras Film Festival from 2014 to 2017. His instinctive, targeted campaigns and sensitivity of content selection have led festival attendance numbers to multiply while exploring a broader representation of queer lives. María Paula Lorgia is a researcher and curator of film and media arts and holds a master’s degree in Media Studies from The New School University in New York City. She currently serves as the head programmer of the Cinematheque of Bogotá, the main public institution for cinema exhibition in Colombia.

Kevin Mwachiro is a writer, poet, free-lance journalist, podcaster, gay activist, cultural enthusiast and lover of humanity and Africa. As a board member of organisations such as the Pan-African ILGA and GALCK in Kenya he has provided a voice for the queer communities of Kenya and Africa in general. Through his poetry, prose and plays, Kevin has raised awareness for LGBTIQ perspectives in Kenya and co-founded Out Film Festival as the first LGBTI festival in East Africa. Kevin is a long-standing collaborator of the BBC and Goethe Institut Nairobi. Jay Bernard is a writer, a film programmer at BFI Flare London and a filmmaker. Their short film, SOMETHING SAID (2017) explores the transformation of the body in the context of the black British archives, and won best experimental film at Aesthetica and best queer short at Leeds international Film Festival. They are also the winner of the 2018 Ted Hughes Award for their multi-media piece SURGE: SIDE A. Popo Fan, born in 1985, is a Chinese queer filmmaker, activist and writer.

Fan won a lawsuit against the government after his film Mama Rainbow had been taken off the internet, a landmark event in fighting against state censorship in China. Andrea Kuhn has been the director of the Nuremberg International Human Rights Film Festival since 2007.
