In 1952, in Mannheim a "Culture and Documentary Film Week" took place for the first time, becoming the "International Film Week Mannheim" in 1961. Since 1973 it was organised under the direction of Fee Vaillant, who was appointed Honorary Member of INTERFILM in 2000. In 1991, Michael Koetz followed her as director of the festival, which was augmented to the International Film Festival Mannheim-Heidelberg. Sascha Keilholz is in charge since 2019. Since 1963 Evangelical and Catholic juries award their prizes, being united to an Ecumenical Jury in 1995.
