Polish Film Festival joins in to help flood victims!
We stand in solidarity with the residents of south-western Poland, who have been struggling with the effects of the flood in recent days. We will donate 50% of the proceeds from the sale of festival merchandise to institutions – designated by the Polish Cinema Association – from the areas affected by the disaster.
Additionally, given the seriousness of the situation in the country, the Festival Team has decided to cancel the planned film surprise for the Opening Gala, and the funds allocated for its production will be added to the donation pool.
