The 2nd annual Berlin International Film Festival was held from 12 to 25 June 1952. [1]
The Golden Bear was awarded to Swedish film One Summer of Happiness by the audience vote. [2]
The FIAPF prohibited the festival from awarding any official prizes by a jury (which in the early 50's only Cannes and Venice were allowed to do so), [1] instead the awards were given through audience voting. This was only changed in 1956 when the FIAPF granted Berlin the so-called "A-Status". [1] [3]
Orson Welles's Othello was banned from the festival due to his alleged anti-German remarks. [4] The festival held a retrospective on silent films. [5]
