Head to the 8th Annual New York Polish Film Festival, being held Friday, May 4th through Tuesday, May 8th at the Indie Screen Theatre in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

The New York Polish Film Festival (NYPFF) offers viewers an opportunity to celebrate Polish cinema and the rare opportunity to interact with the filmmakers themselves. NYPFF showcases features, shorts and documentaries created by distinguished filmmakers, both new and long-established. NYPFF is the largest festival promoting and presenting Polish films on the East Coast. This year the NYPFF is incorporating a new segment, “Neighboring Cinema.” This segment will present three awarded films from post communist countries — Russia, Rumania, and the Czech Republic.

This year the Film Festival is coming to trendy Williamsburg in Brooklyn. The screenings will take place at Indie Screen Theatre. Festival’s films will also be presented in Manhattan and Queens.

Thanks to NYPFF thousands have been afforded the opportunity to see Polish cinema in New York.
