It was a week full of emotions. Traditionally, the peak of the 44th Polish Film Festival was the final gala which took place in the Musical Theatre in Gdynia. Below you will find this year’s list of awards.
The red carpet event
Before the ceremony started, the public could already feel the atmosphere of a red carpet. At the Music Theatre in Gdynia, the whole creme de la creme of the Polish film industry arrived. All had one question in mind: who will get the golden lions?
