Country of origin
Germany

Jörg Breu (*1965) is a Protestant theologian with a focus on interreligious dialogue, a social manager and member of INTERFILM. He worked as a pastor in Wuerzburg and as a dean in the Nuremberg region. He is now dean in Regensburg, the largest deanery in Bavaria. His first encounter with film was his participation in the documentary-film “Living Eyewitnesses - Landsberg” about the subcamps of the Dachau concentration camp in 1983. He has long been concerned with aesthetic theory and religious elements in film and for a time ran an art house cinema with a group of volunteers.
