Peter Kubelka's Cyclical Program What is Film was created in 1996 on the occasion of the centenary of cinema. In 62 programs of outstanding works, this series defines film as an independent art form, as a tool which cultivates new ways of thinking. For each of the programs, the Film Museum supplies an information sheet (in German) with texts about the films being shown.

Peter Kubelka's Cycle is shown each Tuesday as the first screening of the day. Reduced tickets (2,50 €) are available for students with a valid membership.
