In May, Miasto Movie continues its deep dive into politically themed cinema. Join us at Workshops of Culture for another month of thought-provoking films.
Politics—it sparks imaginations, solves problems… only to create new ones just moments later. It’s fiery, scandalous, and sometimes downright corrupt, but like it or not, there’s no escaping it. Most of us take part in it too, casting our votes locally, nationally, and even across Europe.
Politics seeps into everyday life for just about everyone. That’s why it’s such rich material for filmmakers and screenwriters. And cinema has delivered! Think biopics of famous politicians, tales of elections and campaign drama, explosive scandals like Watergate, political fiction thrillers, or stirring stories of social movements like Solidarność.
This spring, we’re rolling out a selection of the most compelling, thought-provoking, and unforgettable films from the world of political cinema. Buckle up—it’s going to be a gripping ride through power, protest, and the politics of storytelling!
