This curated selection highlights the creative freedom and bold imagination that define Poland’s contemporary short-form cinema. Many of the filmmakers featured here have since expanded their early ideas into fully fledged feature-length careers, and their shorts have been recognised at major festivals in Poland and abroad. The programme includes Exam (dir. Jan Naszewski), a sharply observed portrait of a couple invited to participate in their therapist’s professional exam, where mistranslations, expectations and buried frustrations quietly escalate; Shivering Trunks (dir. Natalia Brożyńska), blending handmade animation with playful narration to explore loneliness, self-image and gentle absurdity; Dancing in the Corner (dir. Jan Bujnowski), a visually inventive meditation on early-1990s Poland and one of the most awarded Polish shorts of recent years; Frozen Stories (dir. Grzegorz Jaroszuk), a deadpan tale of two supermarket workers tasked with transforming their lives in forty-eight hours; and Hangover (dir. Maciej Buchwald), a comedic study of a rehabilitation worker whose unexpected infatuation disrupts his routine and worldview. The evening will open with a pre-recorded introduction by Piotr Czerkawski, curator and one of Poland’s leading voices in contemporary film criticism, offering a brief context for the evolving landscape of Polish short cinema. 77 min.
