Hanna Hartowicz
Festival Director
The NYPFF welcomes you to the 19th annual celebration of recent films from Poland!
As the only continuous presenter of Polish cinema in New York for almost two decades, we are proud to offer seven features as well as shorts that reflect the best of filmmaking from the region. Among these are Agnieszka Holland's "Green Border" - a refugee drama that won the top prize at the Polish Film Awards - and Maciej Hamela's "In the Rearview," which was shortlisted for the Best Documentary Academy Award.
It is exciting to showcase the growing number of female filmmakers.
We are delighted to be back at Scandinavia House on Park Avenue - as well as online - and look forward to seeing you!
