The Film Program of this year’s Fotofestiwal focuses on \u0141\u00f3d\u017a and its filmmakers. We are going to show almost 40 films at 11 screenings. One of them will be the premiere of a documentary film by \u0141ukasz z Ba\u0142ut produced by Fotofestiwal, titled \u201cDANGER OF COLLAPSE OR ENLIGHTENMENT!\u201d. The artist, known for his sensitivity to the \u0141\u00f3d\u017a district of Ba\u0142uty, created an insightful picture of this place, based on the memories of its residents. Another interesting portrait of \u0141\u00f3d\u017a will be presented in the selection of short films titled \u201cA story about the city – \u0141\u00f3d\u017a as a protagonist and scene of events\u201d, prepared in cooperation with Piotr Kardas. The audience will be also invited to watch the works of students of the \u0141\u00f3d\u017a Film School, which will be presented during three screenings \u2013 narrative, documentary and animated shorts.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

An exceptional event of this year’s edition is the screening of a deeply personal film by one of the most important Polish creators of animated films, Mariusz Wilczy\u0144ski. \u201cKill It and Leave This Town\u201d is an exceptionally poetic and nostalgic piece \u2013 a journey into the past of the director and the city of \u0141\u00f3d\u017a. The screening will be followed by a meeting with the director, hosted by Prof. J\u00f3zef Robakowski.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are also three other, very special shows included in the program. These are \u201cA Review of Film Works Related to Wojciech Wiszniewski\u201d, \u201cArt scene of \u0141\u00f3d\u017a\u201d and \u201cArtists of \u0141\u00f3d\u017a\u201d, which, following the spirit of the \u201cReincarnation\u201d exhibition, give voice to the artists connected with our city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year’s exhibition \u201cDer Engel\u201d by Iacopo Pasqui is a reference to Wim Wenders’ film \u201cWings of Desire\u201d, which will be shown at an open-air screening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The film program rounds off with a project titled \u201cThe Year 2137 \u2013 Anti-Chronicle of Film\u201d by Moryc Helms, which is a semi-impromptu film remix created using the situationist d\u00e9tournement method from clips from \u201cNight of the Living Dead\u201d and from \u0141\u00f3d\u017a newsreels of the Educational Film Studio from 1970s.
