The Arthoouse Cinema Association Award in the Polish Competition

The main goal of the Studio Cinemas Association that consists of more than 240 independent cinemas in the whole country is to bring high culture to the widest possible audience, education and support development of the art house cinema. Documentaries often make us feel a little bit uncomfortable, make us confront ourselves but also teach us sensitivity, tolerance and beauty. Documentaries play a big role in what the Studio Cinema Association does that is why we believe that the Special Award will be the next step to only strengthen the role of documentary films in the Polish Cinema. The prize in the competition is 8,000 PLN to be spent on promoting the distribution of the awarded film.
