Directed by multi-award winning veteran Polish director Andrzej Wajda, Katyn investigates the murder of thousands of Polish officers by the Soviet Secret Police during World War II. Among those killed was Wajda's own father.

The disappearance of over 15,000 officers in 1940 was a mystery at first and news of the tragedy was not revealed until the spring of 1943, after the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union uncovered the mass graves in Russia's Katyn Forest. During the USSR's post-war occupation of Poland, Soviet propagandists blamed the deaths on the Nazis and set out to punish anyone speaking the truth. After fifty years of cold war secrecy, the Kremlin officially confessed in 1990 that Stalin and the KGB were responsible for the crime. Katyn uses stories from authentic diaries and letters to tell the fate of four officers and their families, and one woman's courageous determination to uncover the truth.

EO, a gray donkey with melancholic eyes and a curious spirit, begins life as a circus performer before escaping across the Polish and Italian countryside, where he encounters a troubled young priest, a Countess, a rowdy soccer team, and experiences society’s cultural and environmental ills, all on his journey to freedom.

Winner of the Jury Prize at Cannes 2022, and Poland’s entry for the 2023 Academy Awards.

Cold War is a passionate love story between a man and a woman who meet in the ruins of post-war Poland. With vastly different backgrounds and temperaments, they are fatefully mismatched and yet condemned to each other. Set against the background of the Cold War in 1950s Poland, Berlin, Yugoslavia and Paris, it’s the tale of a couple separated by politics, character flaws and unfortunate twists of fate —an impossible love story in impossible times. Now playing in select theaters.

Based on the true story, SOBIBOR tells the story of the heroism of Soviet officer Alexander Pechersky. Sobibor was one of four concentration camps in Poland. Prisoners were not separated into two groups like many of the other camps: fit or unfit for work. Those who arrived in Sobibor were doomed for death. With the greatest odds against him, our hero managed to do the impossible — in only three weeks he organized a daring revolt, which aided the mass escape of Sobibor’s condemned prisoners. Some of the escapees were caught and shot, but the rest followed Pechersky and managed to escape. They joined the resistance to fight the Nazis. Pechersky’s victory was such an embarrassment, the camp was dismantled at Himmler’s order & Alexander considered one of the Great Russian heroes of WW2.

Organized by Martin Scorsese's non-profit organization The Film Foundation, this essential selection—curated by Scorsese himself—features films from some of Poland's most accomplished and lauded filmmakers, spanning the period from 1957--1987. Each film has been digitally re-mastered and brilliantly restored into newly subtitled DCPs.

Locked down in his apartment, Pawel Lozinski, one of Poland's most acclaimed filmmakers, hatched an experiment: focusing his camera on the eight square metres of sidewalk beneath his balcony, he waited for stories to come to him instead of searching them out. And come, they did. For two and a half years, he accosted strangers with questions, asking random passersby and neighbourhood residents alike "Who are you?" and proposing intrusive and sometimes unwelcome conversations. Some hurried by on phones and a few made polite-ish comments, but others shared swaths of unexpected experiences. The fixed camera became a confessional of sorts, recording a vibrant stream of life, full of small dramas and comedies, poverty, secrets, a mystery, loneliness—all moments revealing the unseen riches of everyday living. By turns sweet, sad and even shocking, Balcony Movie renders an intimacy between strangers only a pandemic could inspire.

Written and Directed by Władysław Pasikowski

Synopsis:
Franek and Jozek Kalina, sons of a poor farmer, are brothers from a small village in central Poland. Franek immigrated to the United States in the 80's, and cut all ties with his family. Only when Jozek's wife arrives in the US, without explanation, does Franek finally return to his homeland.

Franek discovers that Jozek has been ostracized from the community, and constantly receives various threats. As Franek and Jozek struggle to rebuild their relationship, they are drawn into a gothic tale of intrigue. The two brothers eventually uncover a dark secret that forces them to confront the history of their family and their hometown.

Upon its release in Poland, Aftermath received acclaim and also generated intense controversy. Polish nationals have accused the film of being anti-Polish propaganda, as well as a distortion of a sensitive piece of Polish history. The film has been banned in some Polish cinemas, and actor Maciej Stuhr (Jozek) has received death threats.

Anchored by a “dynamically physical, wild-eyed performance” (The Hollywood Reporter) from newcomer Bartosz Bielenia, CORPUS CHRISTI is an incisive, darkly humorous, and “engrossing exploration of faith, second chances and the possibility of atonement” (Screen).

After spending years in a Warsaw prison for a violent crime, 20-year-old Daniel is released and sent to a remote village to work as a manual laborer. The job is designed to keep the ex-con busy, but Daniel has a higher calling. Over the course of his incarceration he has found Christ, and aspires to join the clergy - but his criminal record means no seminary will accept him. When Daniel arrives in town, one quick lie allows him to be mistaken for the town’s new priest, and he sets about leading his newfound flock. Though he has no training, his passion and charisma inspire the community. At the same time, his unconventional sermons and unpriestly behavior raise suspicions among some of the townsfolk - even more so as he edges towards a dark secret that the community hasn't revealed in the confessional booth.

Director: Jan Komasa
Writer: Mateusz Pacewicz
Stars: Bartosz Bielenia, Aleksandra Konieczna, Eliza Rycembel
