 Beyond baby talk Since the 1970s, the Berlinale has been taking the pulse of new generations of moviegoers, its Kinderfilmfest growing steadily into a prime bazaar for viewers and buyers of films for young audiences and programmers. |
 EFM third big sale spot Once a hangout for arthouse sellers and buyers devoted exclusively to doing business on movies screening in the festival, Berlin's European Film Market has grown like topsy in the past couple of years and taken on a life of its own. |
