lubuskie film summer
Established legitimate festival
Lubuskie Film Summer (Lubuskie Lato Filmowe) is Poland's oldest feature film festival, established in 1969 in Łagów, and since 1990 has served as a premier international showcase for cinema from Central and Eastern Europe. Notable for its distinctive 'working and debatable character,' the festival combines screenings of over 200 narrative, documentary, and short films with the annual Lubuskie Film Summer Forum for critical industry discussions. It holds significant status in the regional circuit as a key venue for discovering independent, auteur-driven works from countries like Czechia, Slovakia, Ukraine, and Russia that are rarely seen elsewhere in Poland.
