8th BNP Paribas Green Film Festival

More than 50 films with an environmental theme – fiction and documentaries, long and short films – will compete at the BNP Paribas Green Film Festival. However, it is not the race for prizes that is most important here, but the popularisation of the environmental message among the widest possible audience. This year, on the screens in several outdoor areas (on Czerwieński Boulevard, in front of Galeria Krakowska and on the Echo City Stage at Kapelanka Street 56) we will see, among others, Documerica (dir. Pierre-François Didek) on the state of the environment in the USA in the 1970s, Bloody Trophy (dir. Ewa Galica) about a journalist’s investigation into the illegal trade in rhino horns that leads to Poland, Black Butterflies (dir. David Baute) about three women from different parts of the world forced to migrate as a result of climate change, or After Us, The Flood about a brilliant physicist travelling back in time to prevent a thermonuclear reactor disaster. Another set of films awaits the audience at out-of-competition screenings, including in the special children’s zone. The reception of particular films will be deepened by discussions with experts in a friendly scientific stand-up format. As every year, the organisers will ensure that all events are prepared in a sustainable and socially responsible manner.
