The second stage of the 40th Gdynia Film Festival “DIAMOND LIONS” plebiscyte
Forty years of the Gdynia Film Festival (which was held in Gdańsk before) are at the same time four decades of the Polish cinema. Out of thousands of titles, roles and musical motifs that have been accompanying us for all those years, the television viewers and Internet users will choose their favourites. Diamond Lions will be given out on 14th September 2015, during the official Opening Gala of the 40th Gdynia Film Festival. All the previous Festival prizewinners will be the guests of this special evening – in one place and at one time, masters and students, seniors and young artists, the classic and the angry young men will sit together in the Musical Theatre. It will be the only evening of such kind, added splendour to with the prizes awarded by the viewers themselves.
The aim of the plebiscite is to select the favourites of the audience out of the previous Gdynia Film Festival prizewinners, in four categories:
THE BEST FILM
THE BEST ACTOR
THE BEST ACTRESS
THE BEST MUSIC
