The third edition of the Amsterdam Polish Film Festival, held at De Balie from October 18-20, 2024, was a tribute to the remarkable Polish film director Agnieszka Holland. With three Oscar nominations to her name, Holland’s films confront difficult truths about humanity while deeply moving and engaging audiences. The festival’s theme, Focus on Humanity, captured the essence of her work. Each film screening sparked lively discussions, both during the official Q&A sessions and among attendees, about the films’ powerful messages and their relevance to our world today.
