Golden Bear (Die Ratten)

The 5th annual Berlin International Film Festival was held from 24 June – 5 July 1955. This year's festival did not give any official jury prizes, instead awards were given by audience voting. This continued until the FIAPF granted Berlin "A-Status" in 1956. The Golden Bear was awarded to Die Ratten by audience vote.
