Five Polish films can be seen in Moldova as part of the Polish Film Festival CinePOLSKA during November 17-20. The pictures will also be available online on TIFF Unlimited, IPN reports, with reference to the Polish Institute in Bucharest.
This year, CinePOLSKA brings to the fore five films that in the previous editions were the most appreciated by the public in Romania and the Republic of Moldova. The films can be viewed for free, without the need to create an account on the platform. According to the organizers, the presented films are often previewed in Romania and the Republic of Moldova, and some of them can only be seen during this festival. The films are available for the viewers in Romania and the Republic of Moldova.
“This year’s edition depicts real stories about people faced with difficult choices, who lived with big dreams and passions or thanks to which progress was made in the world around us,” said Natalia Mosor, director of the Polish Institute in Bucharest.
One of the films that will be screened during the festival is a drama based on real facts about the life of a young man who was convicted unjustly, titled “25 Years of Innocence”. The film “Mr. Jones” is about a Welsh journalist who breaks the news in the western media of the famine in Ukraine in the early 1930s. The biographical feature film “The fastest, the strongest” was inspired by the life of athlete Jerzy Górski. “Body” is about a cynical prosecutor and his daughter suffering from anorexia, while “Gods” presents the life of Polish cardiac surgeon Zbigniew Religa, who performed the first successful heart transplant in Poland in 1987.
