The Helmut Schmidt Journalism Award was presented for the 25th time this year and celebrated its digital premiere. For the first time, the award winners and their award-winning work were presented almost in full-length feature films. This film premiere was accompanied by extensive pre- and post-promotion via social media.
Not only were this year's winning entries presented, but also a review of previous award ceremonies, insights into this year's jury work and a talk with Dan McCrum from the Financial Times, who received a special jury prize for his Wirecard revelations. The shooting took place in the former home of Loki and Helmut Schmidt in Hamburg Langenhorn, among other places.
