The international film industry is already poised to descend on the German capital for the prestigious Berlinale film festival from 5 to 15 February. The 3D online world Twinity will also be in film fever throughout the 59th International Film Festival.

Sony Pictures and CineStar have teamed up to bring THE SPIRIT to Twinity, the 3D online world developed and operated by Metaversum. From 2 February, before the official movie release of this comic strip adaptation, Twinity’s community can look forward to a host of themed events, a competition, and the chance to win some exclusive prizes. A particular highlight is a THE SPIRIT mask, which enables its wearer to see virtual Berlin in the look of the movie.

The 3D online world Twinity hosts regular live book readings in cooperation with zitty, the popular listings guide for the German capital. The event series is broadcast live in zitty’s editorial office in the city’s virtual counterpart, letting Twinity members from all over the world get involved in the live debate. This month’s book reading features Bernd Cailloux reading from the second of his fascinating books about Berlin.
