Polish Film Institute Begins Search For New Chief After Karolina Rozwód Exited Amid Row Over Funding For Indie Pic ‘Altar Boys’


Karolina Rozwód left her role as director in October 2024, six months after she was hired.

EXCLUSIVE: The Polish Film Institute(PISF) is set to begin its search for a new director following the departure of Karolina Rozwód, who left the role late last year following a dispute about the allocation of production funds. Deadline understands that the Institute is currently consulting local industry bodies, such as the Producers Guild of Poland, asking for feedback on the structure of the recruitment process, including the selection committee and expectations for the role. Wróblewska accused Rozwód of breaking Polish law after awarding funding to Aurum Film’s indie pic Altar Boys despite an ongoing investigation into financing previously handed to the production company by the PISF’s former boss, Radosław Śmigulski.
