The 36th annual Berlin International Film Festival was held 14–25 February 1986.[2] The festival opened with Ginger and Fred by Federico Fellini, which played out of competition at the festival.[3]

The Golden Bear was awarded to West German film Stammheim directed by Reinhard Hauff.[4] The retrospective was in honour of German actress and film producer Henny Porten and the homage was dedicated to American film director Fred Zinnemann.[5] Claude Lanzmann's 9 hour long documentary film Shoah about The Holocaust was screened at the Young Filmmakers Forum (renamed the International Forum of New Cinema in 1987).[2]
