admission free
Lublin Film Festival is an international celebration of cinema and an opportunity to get acquainted with the latest films of emerging stars of world cinematography. LFF All Year Round screenings are replay of festival’s hits which revolve around the same subject matter or are similar in form. In September we will show films from the last editions of the festival. Their characters do not fit into a simple, black-and-white vision of the world. Is it possible to be good and evil at the same time?
All the films are subtitled in Polish and English.
