The festival will screen Kieślowski’s Berlin winner “Camera Buff” (1979), where a factory worker’s passion for 8mm film takes over his life; Borowczyk’s taboo-breaking “The Story of Sin” (1975) that follows the fate of a young woman in a spiral of seduction and obsession; and Waszyński’s “The Great Way” (1946) that tells the story of a young soldier who is taken to a military hospital where a nurse pretends to be his fiancée to support his recovery. The festival’s New Polish Cinema strand includes Małgorzata Szumowska and Michał Englert’s “Woman Of…,” Sebastian Buttny’s “Saint,” Jan Holoubek’s “Doppelganger,” Klaudiusz Chrostowski’s “Ultima Thule,” Kinga Debska’s “Feast of Fire,” Adrian Apanel’s “Horror Story,” “The Secret of Little Rose,” the sequel to Jan Kidawa-Blonski’s “Rose,” and Paweł Maślona’s “Scarborn.” The festival’s 2024 family screening is Magdalena Nieć’s “The Dog Who Travelled by Train,” one of the most popular releases in Polish cinemas last year.
