Philipp Maurice Raube

Philipp was studying film and television production at the Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg, with the vision to produce authentic and socially relevant films, which he emphasised in 2018 when producing the debut film Schwimmen by Luzie Loose which premiered at the 32rd Busan Film Festival and won the Gold Award for Best Director at the 52nd Hof Film Festival. Since 2018 Philipp has been working at Filmtank. In 2019 he joined the Berlin team after being in charge of the Stuttgart office. In 2019, Philipp produced his thesis film Talavision by Murad Abu Eisheh, a Syrian war drama, which he realised as a German-Jordanian co-production and was honoured with the 2021 Student Academy Award in Gold. Philipp founded his own production company Die Neue Lux to follow his vision and open the possibilities to produce within the pan-European market. Since 2020 Philipp has been head of industry at the film festival Max Ophüls Preis.
