The Festival’s Award for Outstanding Achievements in Documentary Filmmaking will be presented to Polish director Marcel Łoziński.
A short retrospective of Łoziński’s works will be screened and the filmmaker will meet with the festival audience after the films.
Łoziński is one of Poland’s most renowned documentarians and his films include Recipe For Life, The Microphone Test, Anything Can Happen, Poste Restante and Oscar-nominated short 89mm From Europe.
In 2004, Łoziński won the American Cinema Foundation’s Andrzej Wajda Freedom Award.
