POLISH FILMS AT THE FESTIVALS IN JANUARY

Another festival at which Polish short films are shown is the Flickerfest International Short Film Festival in Australia. There, the documentary film "Atlas " by Maciej Kawalski will be shown. In the Czech Republic, at the Prague Short Film Festival, "Tremors" by Dawid Bodzak will be shown. You can also watch this film at the Premiers Plans Film Festival in France.
In the second half of the month, the festival Slamdance is held in the USA, where the short feature film "Users" by Jakub Piątek is invited to the competition.
