serene countryside with horses grazing on lakeside pastures?
For coastal cliffs, or perhaps a desert (not as big as the
Sahara but located much closer instead)? You’ll find it here.
Are you looking for a medieval castle or a town street filled
with Baroque architecture? Or maybe for a deserted mining
town, or a 19th century textile factory still equipped with
working machinery? Are you looking for a modern city
landscape spiked with skyscrapers, or rather for the postindustrial slums of the city? You will be amazed to learn that
these and many more locations can be found in Poland,
along with comfortable hotels and other facilities with easy
access from abroad.
The part of this Guide devoted to the industry will be
useful if you are looking for money for your production or,

will learn about the details of the Polish financing system,
the legal and financial regulations and find out whom to

general Information
Location and area
Poland lies in Central Europe, bordered to the north by
the Baltic Sea. The geographic coordinates of Poland are
latitudes from 49°00’ to 54°50’ N and longitudes from 14°07’
to 24°08’ E. The geometrical centre of Europe lies in the
vicinity of Poland’s capital, Warsaw. Spanning 649 km northto-south and 689 km east-to-west, Poland is also the site of
the geologic division between the eastern and western
European continental blocks. The total land area of Poland is
312,685 km2, with a territorial sea of 8,700 km2 and another
1,200 km2 of the inlets of the Oder (Szczecin) Lagoon and
Vistula Lagoon. In terms of area, Poland is the 63rd largest
country in the world, and the 9th largest in Europe. The total
length of Poland’s borders is 3,582 km, whereof (clockwise
from north): 528 km is the coastline, 210 km borders on the
Russian Federation, 103 km – Lithuania, 416 km – Belarus,
529 km – Ukraine, 539 km – Slovakia, 790 km – the Czech
Republic and 467 km – Germany.
Poland is in the Central European Time Zone (GMT+1),
along with a number of European countries, including Spain,
France, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy, Austria, Slovakia
and Hungary. From March to October Poland observes
Daylight Saving Time (GMT+2).
Topography and Landscape
Poland lies in the eastern part of the geomorphological
region of the Northern European Lowlands and thus over
90% of Poland’s area is of a lowland nature. The average
altitude is 173 m, with the highest elevation being the Rysy
peak (2,499 m) of the Tatra Mountains and the lowest
depression lying in the northern region of Żuławy Wiślane
(1.8 m below sea level). There are three key mountain chains
in Poland – the Carpathian, the Sudeten, and the
Świętokrzyskie (sometimes referred to as the Holy Cross
Mountains). At 1,037 km, Vistula is Poland’s longest river.
There are over 9,000 lakes exceeding 1 hectare in size, of
which the deepest are Hańcza (108.5 m), Drawsko, Wielki
Staw Polski, Czarny Staw and Wigry.
The Polish landscape is rather diversified, with a
layered structure of geographical regions. The coastline is
fairly smooth, whereas the coast itself usually flat, with
occasional sand reefs, water inlets, sand dunes, sandy
beaches and also some precipitous cliffs. Northern Poland
abounds in lakes, with the Vistula river separating them into
two regions – Pojezierze Mazurskie (the plentiful region often
called “The Land of the Great Mazurian Lakes”) in the east
and Pojezierze Pomorskie in the west. The central part of
Poland is dominated by the Central Lowlands, with three
distinct regions – Nizina Południowowielkopolska in the
southwest, the Silesian Lowland (Nizina Śląska) in the south
9
and the central Mazovia Lowlands (Nizina Mazowiecka). The
southern part of Poland is highly diverse in terms of geology
and landscape, consisting of highlands and mountainous
areas. This southern band consists of the Sudeten mountains
(Sudety) and the according highland (Pogórze Sudeckie), the
Silesian highland (Wyżyna Śląska), the highlands
surrounding Krakow (Wyżyna Krakowsko-Częstochowska), the
wide hollow of the so-called Nida Trough (Niecka Nidziańska)
and the Holy Cross (Świętokrzyskie) mountains. At the end of
this highland belt are the Carpathian mountains, consisting
of the following ranges (roughly west to east): Beskid Śląski,
Beskid Mały, Beskid Makowski, Beskid Wyspowy, Beskid
Żywiecki, Beskid Sądecki, Gorce, Pieniny, the Tatra mountains
(Tatry), Beskid Niski, and Bieszczady.
One of the greatest assets of Poland’s nature is its
unique authenticity. The exceptional wild forest landscapes
of the Białowieża Primeval Forest (Puszcza Białowieska), and
various forest reserves in eastern Poland, as well as the
lowland deciduous forests can no longer be found anywhere
else in Europe. Also quite unique are Poland’s semi-natural
landscapes – such as the valley of the river Biebrza (Kotlina
Biebrzańska) or the Narew (Dolina Narwii) as well as other

locations, where elements of Poland’s traditional agriculture
can still be found today. Białowieża is the only remaining
part of the primeval forest that covered all of Europe’s
lowland areas up until 1,000 years ago. Today this region is
protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Biosphere
Reserve.
The diversity of Poland’s flora and fauna is also unique
on the European scale. Poland has over 2,300 species of wild
plants, over 600 species of moss, 1,600 species of lichens and
about 4,000 species of fungi. Poland’s wildlife also consists of
approximately 33,000 species of animals. In addition, there
are over 1,500 nature preserves, 125 protected parks and 23
national parks in Poland, all serving the purpose of
protecting endangered species of plants and animals.
government and administration
Poland is a parliamentary representative democratic
republic with a pluriform multi-party system and a bicameral
parliament elected for a four-year term by proportional
representation. Internal and foreign affairs are run by the
government, known as the Council of Ministers and led by
the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister and his cabinet are
appointed by the President. The president is elected for a
five-year term by general election.
As of 1999, Poland is subdivided into sixteen
administrative regions called voivodships (Polish:
województwo). The lower levels of administrative division are
379 counties (powiat) and 2,478 communes (gmina). The
government administration on a regional level is represented
by the voivode (wojewoda).
Poland is an active member of a number of
international organizations, including the United Nations,
the International Monetary Fund, UNESCO, the World Trade
Organization, OECD, the Council of Baltic Sea States, the
Council of Europe, the Central European Initiative (CEI) and
NATO.
In 2004 Poland joined the European Union and thus
Polish law is gradually being adapted to comply with
requirements set in EU directives. The supreme act of law in
Poland is the Constitution of the Republic of Poland. Since
2007 Poland is also a member of the Schengen Agreement.
The official language is Polish.

by rail
Poland has one of the most extensive railway networks
in the world, with a total of over 19,000 km. All major cities
and most small towns are connected by rail. The leading
operator of rail infrastructure in Poland is the state-run PKP
Group, which offers services in passenger and cargo
transportation.
According to the 2009 timetable, there are 30
international train connections offered by the following
services: EuroNight, Eurocity and regular international
connections (daytime and nighttime). The following services
are available:
›
›
›
›

›
trains to Berlin, Hannover, Cologne, Munich, Nurnberg,
Innsbruck and Frankfurt am Main departing from Warsaw
and Poznań (EN and EC);
trains to Hamburg departing from Kraków, Katowice and
Wrocław (EC);
trains to Prague and Vienna departing from Warsaw and
Kraków (EC) and from Katowice (international train);
trains to Bratislava and Budapest departing from Warsaw and
Kraków;
trains to Kiev departing from Kraków and Warsaw (nighttime
international train);

Intercity bus to Vilnius departing from Warsaw
by air
There are eleven civilian airports in Poland catering for
domestic and international passenger flights. The largest and
most important of these is the Warsaw Frederic Chopin
Airport (formerly known as Okęcie International Airport). The
other airports are located in Krakow, Gdańsk, Katowice,
Poznań, Wrocław, Szczecin, Łódź, Bydgoszcz, Zielona Góra
and Rzeszów.
The Warsaw airport has over 80 regular connections to
major cities in Poland and abroad. In 2007 three national and
39 foreign air carriers had regular flights to and from
Warsaw, including British Airways, Lufthansa, SAS, Air France,
Alitalia and KLM. However, the largest air carrier in Poland is
LOT Polish Airlines.
Polish air transport is one of the fastest developing
markets in the world. The growth rate was greatly increased
after Poland’s entry into the EU and the introduction of lowcost airline carriers, such as Centralwings, Wizz Air, Sky
Europe, easyJet and Ryanair. Poland’s central location in
Europe is also a key factor – any major city in Europe is a
maximum 2-3 hour flight from Warsaw, Krakow or Gdańsk.

Crossing the border
Poland’s accession to the European Union and, more
recently, to the Schengen Agreement, resulted in new entry
conditions for foreigners. When crossing the Polish border,
citizens of the EU, EEA and Schengen Agreement member
states should hold a valid ID stating their identity and
citizenship. Citizens of the Russian Federation, Belarus and
Ukraine are required to hold ID documents as well as visas
issued by Polish consular offices. The Category C uniform visa
(Schengen visa) allows travel throughout all Schengen area
countries. It is valid for 3 months within 6 months from the
date of issue. Category D are national visas, which entitle the
holder to enter only the Schengen state which issued the
visa. All visas are subject to fees and charges. Only a few
categories of persons are exempt from the visa requirement
when crossing the border. Entry into the Schengen area also
requires the final destination to be stated.
At the request of immigration officers, a foreigner
entering Poland should present means of covering the costs
of entering and leaving the country, as well as the entire
duration of one’s stay at an approximate cost of 27 EUR (100
PLN) per day. This can be presented in the form of cash
(Polish zloty or convertible currencies), valid credit cards or
traveler’s cheques.
When crossing the border, EU citizens are entitled to
carry goods intended for personal use without additional
taxes or excise duties. If a traveler can’t present a sensible
reason for possessing large amounts of goods, and customs
officers have reason to believe that the merchandise is
intended for sale, it is possible that the goods will be
confiscated, along with the vehicle carrying them. The
following indicative quantities are generally recognized as
intended for personal use: 800 cigarettes, 200 cigars, 1 kg of
tobacco, 10 litres of spirits, 20 litres of apéritifs or
intermediate products (e.g. sherry, port wine), or 110 litres of
beer. Travelers under 17 years of age are not allowed to carry
alcohol or tobacco products.
When the duration of one’s stay in Poland is to exceed
90 days, it is necessary to obtain a temporary residence
permit. This requirement does not apply to persons working
PoLand
in Poland who have permanent residence in another EU
country where they return at least once a week.
Currency and Prices
The official currency in Poland is the Polish zloty (PLN)
divided into 100 groszy. The currency comes in banknotes of
10, 20, 50, 100 and 200 PLN and coins of 1, 2 and 5 PLN as
well as 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50 groszy.
Since the times of political transition in Poland, the
exchange rates have become stable. There are however some
natural fluctuations in exchange rates. The values presented
below should therefore be treated as approximates.

Exchange rates dated December 200, source: National Bank of Poland, www.nbp.pl
The most secure way of exchanging currency are banks,
although they offer slightly lower exchange rates and some
charge a 2-3% commission. Banks in Poland are open Monday
to Friday, usually from 9 am to 5 pm, some also on Saturdays
until 1 pm.
Every bank in Poland has a network of its own ATMs,
although access to these may be limited in rural areas. All
major debit and credit cards are accepted in Poland –
Access/MasterCard, American Express, Diners Club, Eurocard,
JCB and Visa. Most banks in Poland allow cash withdrawals
from credit cards.
Poland is a relatively inexpensive country – food, public
transportation, admission tickets, even accommodation are
considerably cheaper than in Western European countries.
Naturally, prices in major cities are higher than in rural areas.
It is safe to assume some average prices for Poland: a large
pizza will cost about 5 euros; a three-course middle-class
restaurant dinner will be about 15-20 euros; a cross-country
train ticket – about 35 euros; a room in a 5-star hotel – 250
euros.

Poland enjoys a temperate climate of transitional
nature between the continental and maritime. Weather
patterns are rather unstable, especially during seasonal
changes and wintertime. Winters in Poland are usually of the
oceanic type with high precipitation; less common are fair
weather continental winters. Northern and western Poland
has a mostly maritime temperate climate, with mild winters
and cool summers and high precipitation. Severe winters and
hot, dry summers are more common in eastern parts of the
country.
MałoPoLSka regIon
MAGDA P
Poland has a relatively high rate of changes in longterm weather patterns. There is a total of six distinct seasons
– in addition to spring, summer, autumn and winter, there
are the uniquely Polish seasons of early spring (przedwiośnie)
and early winter (przedzimie). During the early spring period
which lasts up to a month, the average daily air temperature
ranges from 0°C to 5°C. Spring in Poland usually lasts about
60 days and has an average daily temperature of 5°C to 15°C.
With temperatures above 20°C, summer in Poland begins in
May and lasts up to four months, followed by autumn, when
the average temperature once again drops to between 15°C
and 5°C. With the start of the early winter period, usually
lasting about six weeks, temperatures drop below 5°C.
Wintertime sees a relatively long period of cold weather and
frost – the early spring period does not begin until late
February or early March, and even then only in the mild
climate areas of northern and western Poland. Northeastern
Poland is the last of the regions to see spring, usually at the
end of March.
Temperatures
The average annual temperature in Poland ranges from
5-7°C to 8-10°C. The hottest month of the year is July, with
an average temperature of 16-19°C. The coolest areas in July
are the mountains, where the air temperature drops as
altitude increases. The uppermost parts of the Tatra and
Sudeten mountains have an average July air temperature of
just 9°C. July is also cooler in areas adjacent to the Baltic Sea
(about 16°C.). The hottest area is central Poland, with
temperatures exceeding 18°C. Hot days with temperatures
exceeding 25°C occur between May and September. Their
number in the south of Poland is relatively higher than in the
northern regions.
The coldest month in Poland is January, with
northeastern regions being the coolest part of the country.
The average annual number of days with sub-zero
temperatures ranges from about 25 to 65, while in the
mountains it can be 132 days, and sometimes last up to 150
days. The number of days with ground frost, typically in late
spring and early autumn, ranges from 90 to 130 in the
lowlands, while in the mountains it exceeds 200.
PoLand
Cloud Cover and Precipitation
The number of cloudy days in Poland is between 60 and
70 percent. The cloudiest period is November, and the
clearest months are August and September. The average
annual number of cloudy days (i.e. when the sky is 80%
overcast) is 120-160, and the number of sunny days (i.e.
cloudiness below 20%) is 30-50.
With predominantly westerly winds in Poland, the
highest precipitation occurs on western mountain slopes. In
the Carpathian and Sudeten mountains the average annual
precipitation is 800-1400 mm, while in the lowland and
highland regions it ranges from 400 mm to 750 mm. The
lowest precipitation levels are in eastern Wielkopolska and in
the Kuyavia region. The summer months are characterized by
the most rainfall in a year, usually 2-3 times higher than in
wintertime (and 4 times higher than in the Carpathian
mountains). The average number of days with snowfall
ranges from 30-40 days in western and central Poland to over
50 days in the northeast. The Karkonosze mountains have
120 days, and the Tatras have 145 days of snowfall per year.
Snow also stays the longest in the mountains (up to 200
days) and in northwestern Poland (90-120 days). The least
number of days with snow cover is in the western regions
(40-50 days).
Winds
The winds in Poland are typically weak to moderate,
with speed ranging from 2 to 10 metres per second. Strong
and very strong winds usually occur at the seaside, causing
sea storms, and also in the mountains, where their speed
often exceeds 30 m/s. Hurricanes are uncommon in Poland,
however the mountain halny wind is notorious for uprooting
trees and blowing off roofs. Halny is a type of wind known to
most mountainous regions of the world, usually under the
general name of föhn winds. It brings higher temperatures
and lower air humidity. It is a nuisance for most people, as it
lowers psychophysical strength and causes irritability.
Another local Polish wind is the refreshing Baltic sea breeze.

Polish Law

PoLISH LaW
Polish Law
Poland is a rapidly developing new member of the
European Union and a major recipient of foreign direct
investment in Central and Eastern Europe. Poland's entry
into the EU was followed by instant economic growth that
has slowed down substantially recently due to external
factors, including the current economic crisis. However, due
to its economic policy and through measures taken to
encourage the inflow of foreign investment, Poland has
benefited from large-scale investment from Western Europe,
the United States, a number of Asian countries and
elsewhere.
In a 2006 report published in the Financial Times
Poland ranked 5th among top investment destinations
worldwide. Its central geographical location, large territory
and population of nearly 40 million are attracting a growing
number of foreign investors. Thanks to dynamic political and
economic changes in recent years Poland has taken a major
leap forward in virtually every sphere of life – including the
media. Poland has become a popular destination for foreign
documentary film crews and feature film producers.
business Law
The process of rapprochement between Poland and
Western Europe gained impetus in time with Poland’s
political and economic transformation, culminating in EU
accession in 2004. Thanks to modern regulations, European
standards and guaranteed equal rights for foreign
businesses, non-Polish filmmakers do not require any special
permits.
Foreign entrepreneurs, regardless of their country of
origin, can operate freely in the film industry in Poland
without any additional formalities resulting from their origin.
The basic legal framework is provided by the Act on
Freedom of Economic Activity of 2 July 20041. Pursuant to this
Act, an “entrepreneur” is any person, organization or noncorporate organizational unit with legal capacity conducting
economic activity on its own, while “economic activity” is
defined as professional (permanent and professional activity,
as opposed to occasional and amateur), subordinated to the
rules of profitability and profit, repeatable and resulting in
economic turnover.
entrepreneurs from Member States of the eu and eFTa
may engage in economic activity on the same terms and
conditions as Polish entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurs from
elsewhere are restricted to the following legal forms: jointstock company, limited liability company, limited partnership
or limited joint-stock partnership; they can also take over or
acquire shares in these listed forms of entities.
2
obligations of entrepreneurs
›
›
›
›
›
›
Carrying on economic activity requires prior registration
in the Register of Entrepreneurs of the National Court
Register (Krajowy Rejestr Sądowy) or in the Economic Activity
Registry (Ewidencja Działalności Gospodaczej)
In order to perform economic activity in Poland, an
entrepreneur is obliged to:
obtain a tax identification number (NIP) at the appropriate
tax office and for use in official business (official
correspondence, company seals etc.),
obtain an identity number based on the type of activity
(REGON) at the Statistical Office,
register the business with and pay contributions to the Social
Security Office (ZUS) when employing staff,
open a bank account and use it for all business related
transactions,
file monthly returns and pay taxes (i.e. VAT, income tax,
advances on payroll tax etc.) to the local tax office,
file financial statements and statistical reports as required by
appropriate regulations.
The entrepreneur must observe rules of fair competition
(as set by EU regulations, which prohibit monopolistic
practices, concentrated (cartel) practices, dumping pricing
policies, illegal concentration etc.), follow regulations
determining the terms and conditions of economic activity
(health and safety, public ethics and environment protection
in particular) and, where required by law, employ only
properly trained and skilled professionals.
The Cinematography Act regulates issues related to the
financing of film production (feature, documentary and
animation) and project development. It sketches out the
basic legal framework for the functioning of the film market
and provides clear legal definitions of selected industry terms
– e.g. producer, co-producer, film production and film
services.
Other important Polish film production regulations
include the: Regulation of the Minister of Culture dated 27
October 2005 on the co-financing of cinematography
undertakings by the Polish Film Institute2 and the Regulation
of the Minister of Culture dated 24 November 2005 on the
means of audit of entities with reference to the use of
additional project funding3. Also applicable will be general
rules of Polish civil law and copyright law e.g. when
formulating and signing option agreements, or obtaining
intellectual property rights to music and songs used in films.
There are no legal impediments for foreign
entrepreneurs in terms of autonomous economic activity in
Poland, including the field of film production, even for a
single project. A producer from an EU Member State will,
however, naturally come across a number of formalities to
fulfil. Patience and forward-planning become key factors
when planning to establish some sort of cooperation with a
Polish co-producer, contributing financially or bringing the
promising option of acquiring non-returnable public funds,
because (as elsewhere) public institutions require some time
to assess additional project funding applications, in terms of
both content (script value assessment) and finances.
Film Production The basic legislation for film production is the
Cinematography Act of June 30, 2005 (Polish Official Journal
2005 No 132 item 1111). Poland is also a signatory of the
European Convention on Cinematographic Co-production of
October 2, 1992.
The State supports the film industry in Poland. There
are public grants given for film production, selected festivals
and events, developing archives, education and professional
training, as well as for promotion of the Polish film industry
abroad.
The key organization in the film industry is the Polish
Film Institute, set up under the Cinematography Act.
2
autonomous Production
When undertaking autonomous production (i.e.
without a Polish counterpart) a foreign producer must first
register economic activity based on the same regulations
that apply to Polish businesses. Tax is a separate issue.
Foreign entrepreneurs must set up a Polish office; hire
qualified legal representatives and an accounting service
provider. This does not imply release of the foreign
entrepreneur from liability for legal and financial decisions.
Under Polish fiscal regulations (the Tax Ordinance Act and
income tax laws), as a business entity the foreign
entrepreneur is responsible for any transgressions.

Cooperation with a Polish Partner
Film production in Poland is much easier and more
convenient when cooperating with a Polish business partner.
Such cooperation can take two forms – either a service order
or co-production, for applicable projects and on condition
that the foreign producer does not lay claim to exclusive
distribution rights. A Polish partner can be helpful in
obtaining funding from various public and private sources.
Aside from essential business confidence strengthened by a
written contract and ease of communication, the Polish
partner should be able to provide fast budgeting, prepare the
shooting schedule and index of production resources, present
organizational options for the pre-production, principal
photography and post-production stages, and should also be
familiar with the film service and technology market and
respective financial alternatives (e.g. stock vs. magnetic
film), not to mention a fully-functioning head office, qualified
staff and the all-important personal contacts.
The most common form of operating in the film
industry is a limited liability company (Polish abbreviation:
sp. z o.o.). Every company must submit an annual balance
sheet and make various other filings with the National Court
Registry, e.g. regarding changes of address of the company,
management board members, rules of representation etc.
This data is publicly available and can be helpful in assessing
a company’s credibility.
A well-constructed co-production agreement should
regulate at least the following matters: the budget, financing
of the production, management of the co-production,
ownership rights (chain of title is an issue of crucial
importance) and matters related with negatives, credits and
so forth.
additional Financing of the Film Production
Additional financing may be available, on application,
from the Polish Film Institute or Eurimages Fund. In the
Polish Film Institute, projects are judged by film experts on
the following criteria: artistic, cognitive and ethical values,
meaning for national culture, supporting Polish traditions
and the Polish language, enriching cultural diversity in
Europe, expected effects of the planned undertaking and,
finally, the financial and economic terms of the project’s
2
realization. For Eurimages, the criteria are slightly different.
The following aspects of the projects are important: artistic
merits, experience of the director, the producers, the artistic
team (authors, scriptwriter, casting, etc.) and the crew
members, circulation potential of the project, its commercial
potential, artistic and/or technical co-operation between the
co-producers, degree of confirmed financing and the
European character of the project. Additional project funding
from the Polish Film Institute can be granted in the form of
subsidies, loans or warranties, while financial support from
Eurimages takes the form of a conditionally repayable
interest-free loan.
Who Can apply?
Important issues in applying for co-production financing
are the number and origin of the co-producers, the character
of contributions (purely financial or otherwise) and the share
(in percentage terms) of individual contributions to the film
budget.
Eurimages financing can be applied for by any natural
or legal person governed by legislation of one of Eurimages
Fund’s member states whose principal activity consists in
producing cinematographic works. There must be at least 2
co-producers from two different member states of the Fund.
Co-producers from countries outside of the Eurimages Fund
are accepted too, but their combined percentage
participation may not exceed 30% of the total co-production
budget;
Financing from the Polish Film Institute is also available
to non-Polish individuals or legal entities carrying on
cinematographic activities, so long as they are from an EU or
EFTA member state (excluding Switzerland).
The amounts
The maximum percentage of funding available in
relation to the overall budget is as a general rule 50% of the
total budget, when funding comes from the Polish Film
Institute. It is a maximum 15% of the total production cost
(no more than EUR 700 000) from Eurimages (for films with
total production costs below EUR 1.5 million – financial
support shall not exceed 20%).

The Polish Film Institute processes additional project
funding applications within the framework of the relevant
operational programme four times a year. On average, the
assessment procedure lasts about three months; however,
the entire period between application approval and signing
of the contract may exceed six months. In relation to
applications, foreign producers are required to appear at
meetings in Poland.
Fees and Taxes
›
›
›
›
Certain fees are levied on foreign producers
undertaking film production in Poland, regardless of the form
of cooperation with Polish business partners. The most
important of these are as follows:
advance on personal income tax (initial charges made upon
payment of wages);
VAT on invoices from goods and service providers;
social security contributions on employment contracts and
mandate contracts;
advance on corporate income tax (if any)
Other occasional fees and taxes include legal fees (e.g.
when signing certain lease contracts; notary charges; court
registry fees), bank fees (bank transfers, loan servicing etc.),
real estate taxes (where applicable), local costs (e.g. permits
for aerial photography or entry to national parks), and
others.
Work Permits
No work permit is required from EU or EEA citizens.
Unless otherwise stated in international agreements,
production crew members from other countries must obtain
a work permit from the regional “voivod” (Polish: Wojewoda)
authorities.
Certain professionals, including musicians and ators,
are allowed to work in Poland without any additional permits
for up to 30 days.
Filming Permits
Generally, it is possible to film in any location. The most
common solution is to sign fixed term lease agreements with
clearly stated conditions of use. Unless specified in a fixed
tariff, rent is negotiable.
Permission often has to be obtained from property
owners or local authorities before filming can commence
(and they have the right to refuse). It is highly recommended
to apply for any permits well in advance, as certain
procedures need to be finalized 30 days prior to shooting.
Official procedures may be time-consuming, for
instance for permission to film in the street. When applying,
the producer must attach a plan for traffic reorganization and
cordoning off of the area.
When planning to shoot in decrepit buildings or in
ruins, a positive safety report must be commissioned for
persons accessing the area in order to obtain a permit to
film.
Health Insurance
All EU and EEA citizens are covered by public health
insurance in Poland.
Film Production Insurance
Completion bonds are generally uncommon in Poland.
During production, the film crew and equipment must be
covered by third party and accident insurance, for which
most insurance companies in Poland offer a wide range of
services.
State aid
The State can provide entrepreneurs with public aid
only on terms and in forms clearly stated in separate
provisions. Public aid must be granted in particular with
respect to the rules of fair competition and equal rights.

Polish Cinema today
the year 2005 saw the introduction of the Act on
Cinematography in Poland and the launch of the Polish film
institute. The new film law determines the extent of State
involvement in film production and other areas of the
industry.
Starting in 2006, this resulted in a rapid increase in the
number of films being produced in Poland and in inducing
the interest of foreign filmmakers in co-productions and film
services in Poland. The Polish Film Institute actively
promotes Polish cinema on the international level. A foreign
film producer, festival manager or international project
coordinator looking for Polish partners should turn to the
Polish Film Institute for financial consulting and assistance in
contacting interested parties.
funding
the Polish film institute has an annual budget of over 44
million Eur (as on 31 december, 2008), partially funded by a
1.5% levy imposed on tV, cinema and cable operators. the
Polish film institute awards grants not only for film
production, but also other fields of the industry, including film
promotion, dissemination of film culture, professional training
film industry
and film distribution. in 2007 the Polish film institute granted
over 15 million Eur for film production alone. in 2008 this
quota was increased to almost 18 million Eur. in most cases,
the Polish film institute grants funding up to 50% of the total
production budget.
Thanks to the efforts of the Polish Film Institute, the
year 2007 brought the launch of regional film funds. By the
end of 2008, eight such projects had already been introduced
and others were in preparation. Most regional film funds
take the form of a competition that selects projects for
funding. A basic condition for entering such a competition is
creating a link between the city or region and the topic of
the film, place of shooting or participation of local residents
and businesses.
Poland participates in the two foremost European
programmes for supporting the audiovisual industry –
Eurimages and the European Union’s mEdiA 2007
programme. Warsaw is home to Media Desk Poland, which
assists producers in completing forms and settling the
accounts for projects supported by MEDIA.
One of the key investors in film is Polish television
(Telewizja Polska SA). It is to date the largest film producer in
Poland. However, commercial TV channels, including Canal+,
TVN and occasionally Polsat and HBO Polska also engage in
film production.
A foreign producer seeking Polish production partners
has a wide range of possibilities. There are a number of
businesses specializing in film production services. Most of
them focus on a particular field – be it feature, documentary
or animation production. Although the majority of players in
the film industry consists of private businesses, among them
most production, distribution and exhibition companies,
there is also a number of state-owned film establishments, a
unique element of the structure of the Polish film industry.
These regional organizations, currently undergoing
ownership transformation, include some of Poland’s largest
film studios, small-scale animation studios and film
production units1. However the ownership structure is not at
all a key factor, as all Polish private and public entities are
eligible for public funding.
Production
The Polish market of film-related services is well
developed and many producers choose to make use of
existing facilities, which saves them the cost of investing in
developing their own production base. There are numerous
companies that specialize in services for various stages of
production, from casting, lighting equipment and special
effects to editing, sound production and finally subtitling.
Only a few major studios have complex facilities, offering
everything from soundstages to editing services.
distribution
The film distribution and exhibition market is slightly
more concentrated, with approximately a dozen key players.
Most film distribution companies have a complex approach
to their film product, dealing with everything from cinema
distribution to television sales and the DVD market. Polish
independent film distribution companies have also recently
been increasing their involvement in film production;
contributing to the film budget and subsequently acquiring
picture rights. This form of co-production has proven very
effective and will undoubtedly continue to gain in
importance.
.
In Polish terminology film production companies are often referred to as Studios
(Polish: Studio filmowe), whereas film studios are commonly known under the term
Wytwórnia.
The Polish distribution market itself is dominated by
Hollywood studios and their affiliates – UIP, Forum Film
(Buena Vista International), Imperial CinePix (20th Century
Fox) and Warner Bros. Apart from these major players, there
are a few local companies that play a key role in the market.
Two of them deserve special mention, the first being
Interfilm – an independent distribution company that
reached blockbuster success with Jan Paweł II / Pope John
Paul II (2006) and a number of local romantic comedies. The
second company is Gutek Film, credited with familiarizing
Polish audiences with the works of some of the world’s most
prominent filmmakers, including Lars von Trier and Pedro
Almodovar. In 2007, the Association of Polish Filmmakers and
several leading film producers jointly founded a foundation
known as Film Polski. It was established to promote Polish
films in Poland and abroad, but also to handle their
distribution. This foundation has already released nine Polish
features and two documentaries.
Exhibition
The number of cinemas in Poland today is approx. 700,
of which 67 are multiplex cinemas and another five are
IMAX. In recent years the number of multiplex cinemas has
been increasing steadily. Unfortunately this brought on the
inevitable drop in the number of single-screen cinemas,
although funding from the Polish Film Institute can help
improve their situation in the future.
Thanks to participation in the EUROPA CINEMAS
framework, some cinemas in major cities are able to focus on
arthouse films, while the multiplex chains focus on
mainstream first run pictures. Exhibition of arthouse films is
also being developed through the Arthouse Cinema Network
(Sieć Kin Studyjnych), financed by the Polish Film Institute
and run by the National Film Archive.
In 2007, a record 13 new multiplex cinemas were
opened throughout Poland. 2008 brought the launch of only
8 multiplexes in Poland's major agglomerations – the market
is now saturated and investors are more interested in
launching cinemas in smaller cities. Cinema owners are now
counting on getting audiences interested in 3D cinema. Over
20 cinemas are now equipped with projectors that enable
screenings in 3D digital technology. Most use the technology
known as Dolby 3D Digital Cinema.

national film Archive
The Polish National Film Archive (Filmoteka Narodowa)
is located in Warsaw. It is in fact the largest film archive in
Poland, collecting and preserving film prints, and running a
large library of cinematic literature and press.
film schools
Education for film professionals is one of the fastest
growing segments of the film industry in Poland. Apart from
the two leading schools: the renowned National Film
Television & Theatre School (PWSFTiT) in Łódź, the Radio and
Television Department of the Silesian University (Uniwersytet
Śląski) in Katowice and several prestigious acting schools,
young filmmakers can also study film-related fields at most
art schools and universities.

film Events
There is a growing number of film festivals, educational
programmes and other activities aimed at developing film
culture in Poland. The largest international film festivals in
Poland are the Warsaw Film Festival, Era New Horizons in
Wrocław and the documentary Krakow Film Festival. The
national Polish Film Festival takes place annually in Gdynia
and is a weeklong presentation of recent film production in
Poland. Apart from the major events, there is certainly more
happening on the smaller, regional scale. Most major cities
make efforts to be actively involved in film events, which
could be useful for foreign festival coordinators seeking
cooperation with Polish partners that could help obtain EU
funding for their projects.
guilds and unions
Copyright law
The key industry collective rights organization in
Poland is the Association of Polish Filmmakers, actively
cooperating with respective parties abroad and representing
film directors, cinematographers, set designers and writers.
Another authors’ association is ZAiKS, representing mostly
writers and composers. Copyright management organizations
are increasingly effective in securing royalties; however
Internet piracy remains a major problem.
The key professional organization in Poland is the
Association of Polish Filmmakers (SFP) and the National
Chamber of Audiovisual Producers (KIPA); however there is
also a considerable number of actor guilds and trade unions
for film professionals. For an index of the film industry in
Poland, see the business directory section of this chapter.
film Production in Poland 2005-2008. An overview
The years 2000 to 2004 saw a significant decrease in
the number of feature film productions in Poland. Although
the official number was over 20, these were mostly lowbudget indie productions or TV movies. The low number of
feature productions was the result of a shortage of public
funding. The new Film Law and the launch of the Polish Film
Institute led to reversing this trend and marked an increase
in film production over the past three years.
By 2006, feature film production in Poland increased to
almost 40 films per year. These are mostly medium-budget
productions of approximately 800,000 EUR. A low-budget
feature debut usually costs approx. 300,000 EUR. The biggest
budgets in recent years went to high-profile epic productions
based on classic novels. These include Quo Vadis (21 million
EUR), Ogniem i mieczem (With Fire and Sword) (6 million
EUR), Przedwiośnie (The Spring to Come) (5.8 million EUR)
and Pan Tadeusz (3.4 million EUR). These pictures were
largely film versions of national epics and as such were
virtually guaranteed to be a box-office success. The films
made today are modestly budgeted, set in the present day
and dealing with modern issues and universal values. In
2006 these included The Collector by Feliks Falk, Saviour’s
Square by Krzysztof Krauze and Joanna Kos-Krauze and Day of
the Wacko by Marek Koterski, in 2007 – Time to Die by
Dorota Kędzierzawska, Fur by Tomek Drozdowicz, Twists of
Fate by Jerzy Stuhr, All Will Be Well by Tomasz Wiszniewski,
and many others. The year 2008 brought the release of a
number of significant projects, including 33 Scenes from Life
by Małgorzata Szumowska, The Offsiders by Kasia Adamik,
Before the Twilight by Jacek Bławut, Little Moscow by
Waldemar Krzystek, Damage by Michał Rosa and Four Nights
with Anna – the grand comeback of Jerzy Skolimowski.
The number of international awards, of which Polish
filmmakers received over 40 in 2008 alone, best attests to
the quality of new Polish films. Certainly the key events
included an Oscar for the animated feature Peter & the Wolf
by Suzie Templeton, produced in Poland and in cooperation
with Se-Ma-For, and the best foreign film Oscar nomination
for Andrzej Wajda’s Katyń. Special mention should also be
given to Andrzej Maleszka and his television series The Magic
Tree, winner of an Emmy Award.
Recent years have also marked the success of many upand-coming filmmakers. It is these young people that are
changing the face of Polish cinema today. Debut features
have often become popular with cinema audiences, but also
gained critical acclaim, winning awards at Polish and
international festivals. The Welts from Magdalena Piekorz,
Ode to Joy from the trio of Anna Kazejak-Dawid, Jan Komasa
and Maciej Migas, Warszawa by Dariusz Gajewski, Symmetry
by Konrad Niewolski, Edi by Piotr Trzaskalski and more and
most recently Retrieval, Poland’s 2006 Oscar entry from
Sławomir Fabicki are all superb examples of such films. One
of the most promising filmmakers is Andrzej Jakimowski. His
first two feature films (Squint Your Eyes and more recently
Sztuczki / Tricks, the Polish candidate for the Oscars in 2009)
received a considerable number of awards at Polish and
international film festivals. Another acclaimed recent Polish
feature is Preserve by Łukasz Palkowski.
A film’s success is measured not only by the number of
awards, but also its popularity with cinema audiences. When
looking at mainstream production, it is impossible to
overlook the key role played by romantic comedies, which
often reach blockbuster success at the box-office and later on
the DVD market. The biggest blockbusters of 2007 include
Why not!, Never ever!, Just Love Me, I’ll Show You! and
French Number. In 2008 this success was achieved by more
movies in this genre – Jeszcze raz, Midnight Talk, Expecting
Love and Nie kłam kochanie. The best example of the
popularity of comedies in Poland is Laydees by Tomasz
Konecki and Andrzej Saramonowicz, with over 2.5 million
admissions. This film did not only rank first in the Top 10 list
(based on box-office data for the period from 4 January 2008
to 4 December 2008), but also became the most popular
Polish comedy in 18 years.
The introduction of the new Film Law and the
international activity of the Polish Film Institute helped to
increase interest of foreign filmmakers in Poland as a
potential partner for co-production. In 2005 alone six films
were co-productions, a further eight in 2006 and currently
eleven more are in production. Poland has participated in the
production of Strike by Volker Schlöndorff, Nightwatching by
Peter Greenaway, John Kent Harrison’s Pope John Paul II, It's
a Free World... by Ken Loach and most recently Karamazovi
by Petr Zelenka.

Cinema Attendance in Poland 2005-2008
Current trends in the Polish cinema market are similar
to those in other European countries. The biggest box-office
and attendance success goes to Hollywood blockbusters that
reach similar status worldwide. However, much like in other
countries of Central Europe (Hungary, Czech Republic) recent
years marked a significant rise in admissions to local films. In
Poland these were mainly medium-budget romantic
comedies. One thing unique in Poland is the incredible
popularity of film biographies of Pope John Paul II (three
Top10 box office hits of 2005-2006) and of films considered
historically significant.
2005 marked a global decrease in cinema attendance,
with an almost 30% drop in Poland when compared to the
record year 2004. Although the number of films released in
cinemas increased to a record 224, this found no reflection in
attendance or revenue. Total admissions were at 23.3
million, revenues at 331.6 million PLN (approx. 103 million
USD). The share of European films in the market also reached
an unprecedented 23%, with a record number of 72
premieres. This was a result of Poland's entry into the
European Union and subsequent MEDIA funding for film
distributors. As for Polish films, there were 24 premieres that
year (more than in two previous years), however none
reached blockbuster status. This was to change in 2006. The
biggest film of 2005 was rather unexpectedly the made-for-TV
movie Karol: A Man Who Became Pope, with almost 1.9
million viewers. Eight of the Top 10 films of 2005 were
Hollywood productions.
2006 was a much better season for the cinema market
in Poland. Admissions increased by about 30%. Nine Polish
films had an attendance of over 200,000 viewers, whereas in
2005 no single Polish feature achieved such results. Again,
the largest cinema success was held by made-for-TV movies.
Apart from 2005's Karol: A Man Who Became Pope, two
other TV movies about the Polish pope reached blockbuster
status, filling slots 2 and 3 of the Top 10 list. The Top 20 list
included 12 children's movies and three Polish features (two
of them in the Top 10). Polish features held a share of 16% of
total admissions (compared to 3.4% in 2005). The number of
releases increased slightly to 236, including 27 Polish titles.
Six of the Top 10 films were made in Hollywood.
2007 brought a further increase in cinema attendance
and an ever-growing popularity of Polish films. Total
admissions reached the level of 32.6 million, and the Top 3
films included two Polish features – Katyń (2.74 million
viewers) and Testosterone (1.36 million). A record five Polish
films made it into the Top 10. They varied in genres – from
historical dramas (Katyń) to comedies (Testosterone and
Ryś), romantic comedies (Why Not!) and crime (State
Witness). In addition, the record-breaking Katyń was
screened on 189 prints, whereas State Witness, the last on
this list, had a mere 81 prints. The success of Andrzej
Wajda's Katyń is unquestionable. This was a film awaited by
the entire Polish audience. Its results placed it in the Top 10
of most popular movies since 1989. The only other films to
achieve such high attendance in 2007 were movies for young
audiences, including three animated films. The biggest hit
was Shrek the Third, others included Harry Potter and the
Order of the Phoenix, Ratatouille, Pirates of the Caribbean:
At World's End and Bee Movie.
In 2008 this good trend for Polish cinema continued.
Cinema attendance rose slightly to 31.3 million (based on
box-office data for the period from 4 January 2008 to 4
December 2008) and five Polish features made it into the Top
20, including Laydees which ranked first (with over 2.5
million viewers) and Nie kłam, kochanie in second place
(almost 1.4 million viewers). The most popular movies of the
year included four romantic comedies (each with over
500,000 viewers) and the drama documentary Świadectwo
about the life of John Paul II, based on the memoirs of his
long-time friend and private secretary, Stanislaw Cardinal
Dziwisz.
2008 confirmed the existing trends in Polish cinema.
Apart from domestic productions, Polish viewers most
enjoyed action and family-oriented movies. The Top 20 list
includes Kung Fu Panda, Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of
The Crystal Skull, The Chronicles Of Narnia. Prince Caspian,
Wall-E, Asterix aux jeux Olympiques, High School Musical 3:
Senior Year, Step Up 2 The Streets and Hancock.

the film fund
The regional film fund will be launched in early 2009. The project was developed by regional authorities in
cooperation with municipal authorities of Koszalin and Szczecin. Apart from the film fund, regional authorities plan
to establish a Pomeranian Film Institute to coordinate and support all film activities in the region. Plans for a film
commission and locations archive in Szczecin and Koszalin are also under way. The regional film fund is to
coproduce one to two features and three to five documentaries per year.

Budget
The budget of the Pomeranian Film Institute is set at
800,000 PLN (208,000 EUR), of which 500,000 PLN
(130,000 EUR) are funds allocated to the film fund. The
regional authorities see this budget as a starting point that
will gradually be increased.
entry conditions
The film fund was established to support the
production of feature and documentary films dealing with
subject matter related to the region, its history, culture and
society. Projects will be chosen from submitted applications
by a 5-member commission. Applicant projects will preferably
deal with the field of Polish-German relations, including
projects by German filmmakers and co-financed by
transnational cooperation funds. Among feature film,
preference is given to first- and second-time directors.
Pomerania
The region lies in northwestern Poland, bordering on
the Baltic Sea and on Germany in the west. The picturesque
landscapes of the region have appealed to filmmakers from
around the world. Szczecin was featured in Lars von Trier’s
Europa, while Dąbie lake and the Slavonic and Viking
Heritage Centre could be seen in a project of The History
Channel. Pomerania is also often a setting for sequels of
northern wing of the castle of the Pomeranian dukes, szczecin

landscape
The region and its two national parks and seven
landscape parks are home to many sandy beaches, clear
lakes and forests rich in flora and fauna. The Wolin National
Park is known for its 15-kilometre long cliffs. Remains of
prehistoric settlements can also be found in the park, as well
as relicts of World War II, including trenches, bunkers and
V-3 launch pods.

Szczecin is home to a number of 13th to 18th century
buildings, the most prominent of which are the Castle of the
Pomeranian Dukes, the remains of town fortifications, Gothic
churches and storage houses, as well as Baroque palaces.
Several sites in Koszalin are part of the European Route of
Brick Gothic.
Many towns in the region have maintained their
Medieval town structure with a pfarr church, 13th century
granite churches and monasteries and a number of churches
dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries. One town worth
mentioning is Stargard Szczeciński – a beautiful Medieval
structure. Local attractions include the archeological site of
Manowo – Gothic barrows from the 1st and 2nd centuries A.D.
and ancient Slavonic settlements in Mielno.
The region is also home to Międzyzdroje – a seaside
resort known for its 300-metre long pier and Promenade of
the Stars – a replica of the Hollywood Walk of Fame, with
handprints of prominent Polish film stars.

the film fund
The decision to support film production was made by Gdańsk mayor Paweł Adamowicz in September 2008.
The first competition under the Gdańsk Film Fund will be launched in early 2009. Although the city never allocated
funds for film production through competitions, in 2003 Gdańsk supported the production of Wróżby Kumaka (The
Call of the Toad) by Robert Gliński with 500,000 PLN (130,000 EUR).
The Gdańsk Film Fund is run by the Mayor’s Office for City Promotion. The first edition is for Polish producers,
however the Gdańsk authorities will possibly invite applicants from other European countries in the future.

Budget
1 million PLN (260,000 EUR) was allocated to support
film production in 2009. Depending on the outcome of the
competition, the grant may be awarded to one film or
divided between three projects.
entry Conditions
The Gdańsk Film Fund provides funding for the
production of feature, documentary and animated films. The
nationwide competition is set up for film producers, i.e.
enterprises with the permits, know-how and experience
necessary to execute a film project and able to present
evidence of a stable financial condition. All applicants must
submit the required forms and attachments. A single entity
may apply only once per edition. Projects that have had
public screenings before the application submission date are
ineligible for funding. A commission assesses applications,
while the merit value of each application is determined by
assigned experts.

gdańsk
Each project is assessed based on the following criteria:
connection to Gdańsk, artistic, humanist and ethical values
of the project, originality, contribution to European cultural
diversity and prior filmography of the director and producer.
The connection to Gdańsk can be implemented through the
use of local landmarks, employment of Gdańsk residents and
enterprises, or the discovery of new places and events that
can contribute to the promotion of Gdańsk. Other key factors
include an assessment of cinema attendance and the
expected amount of the budget to be spent in the city.
The first edition of the Gdańsk Film Fund competition
will be announced by early February 2009. The applications
will be assessed in March 2009.
gdańsk
The city of Gdańsk is located at the mouth of the
Motława and Vistula rivers on the Bay of Gdańsk. Together
with Gdynia and Sopot, Gdańsk forms an area known as TriCity. Other cities in the agglomeration include Pruszcz, Reda,
Rumia and Wejherowo. Over the years, the picturesque city
landscapes have become an inspiration to filmmakers from
around the world. Gdańsk has played the movie roles of
Warsaw and Lübeck, and in early 2009 will be cast as early
20th century Dublin. But most importantly, Gdańsk has been
the setting of several major features, directly related to the
city’s history – films such as Andrzej Wajda’s Man of Iron or
The Tin Drum and Strike, both by Volker Schlöndorff.

landscape
The city lies on the coast of the Baltic Sea. Its proximity
to the sea and location at the crossroads of four distinct
geographical regions account for the highly diverse
landscape of the city, ranging from sandy beaches to
flatlands, deep valleys and steep cliffs. The city’s forests and
parks account for one of the greatest natural resources,
covering 24% of the city’s total area. Gdańsk is also home to
a large forest complex that makes up part of the Tri-City
Landscape Park.

City and sites
Gdańsk is the capital of the Pomeranian voivodship, as
well as the sixth most populated and seventh largest city in
Poland. It is home to one of Poland’s most valuable old town
areas, although most of the historic city centre was
destroyed during World War II and subsequently rebuilt.

A number of Gdańsk historic sites are part of the tourist
European Route of Brick Gothic (EuRoB). Most of these are
located in the Main Town (Main Town Hall, Artus Palace,
Uphagen House) and in the Old Town (the Great Mill, Old
Town Hall, St. Catherine’s Church). Numerous others are
settled along the city’s main walking street. St. Mary’s
Church in Gdańsk is the largest medieval brick church in
Europe. Another famous Gdańsk site is Oliwa – home to a 18th
century cathedral and park, built in French Baroque style.
The decorative façades of the buildings in Mariacka street are
characteristic of old merchant houses. Also quite unique is
the city’s medieval fortress Katownia, once used as a prison
and house of torture, and today accounting for the city’s
medieval feel along with a number of towers, fortified walls
and entry gates. A similar area is the Gdańsk Fort – a vast
16th century Prussian fortress, known for its fortified moat
and observation tower.
The New Port area of Gdańsk is home to a number of
lighthouses and ancient storage houses.
One of the most interesting examples of industrial
areas is the Gdańsk shipyard – a place that played a unique
role in the history of Gdańsk, Poland and all of Europe.

the film fund
The Gdynia Film Fund was established by the mayor of Gdynia in September 2008. The municipal authorities have
placed the administration of the fund in the hands of the cultural organization called Centrum Kultury w Gdyni.
The first competition for the support of film production was announced in min-January 2009.
Before the Film Fund was established, the municipal authorities of Gdynia had already co-financed the production
of Miasto z morza by Andrzej Kotkowski. This film is based on a novel that tells the story of how the city was
established. It will premiere during the next edition of the Polish Film Festival, which takes place annually in Gdynia.

Budget
The Film Fund has an annual budget of at least 700,000
PLN (182,000 EUR). Funding is available to one or more
projects and the amount of funding may vary between
projects. The municipal authorities have stated that,
depending on the success of produced films, the budget of
the Film Fund in future years will continue to increase.
entry Conditions
The Film Fund provides support for feature and
documentary projects. Preference is given to projects that
directly promote the city of Gdynia, its landscape, history or
related maritime themes and have a positive impact on the
local market.
A key condition is the timely application for financing
and compliance with requirements as specified in the
regulations of the Gdynia Film Fund. Other conditions
include the subject matter and range of promoting the city
during production and distribution of the film. The artistic
merit of the project is also taken into consideration.
At time of this publication, the first edition of the
competition is open. The deadline for applications is February
28th, 2009. The results will be announced by May 30th, 2009.

gdynia
Gdynia is a sea port located on the Baltic Sea. Together
with Gdańsk and Sopot, Gdynia forms an area known as TriCity. The city is one of Poland’s youngest, albeit fastest
growing urban areas. Merely 90 years ago, it was nothing
but a fishing village – today, the city is home to 250,000
inhabitants.
A number of unique sites are to be found in Gdynia –
from picturesque coastline and vast greenery to large
industrial areas. The city is also known for its annual Polish
Film Festival that has been organized here for over 20 years.
wAMEs / wIkIPEDIA
Every September, the cream of the Polish film industry visits
Gdynia to take part in this event.
landscape
Gdynia’s location is also the division mark between two
geographical regions, and as such, the city’s landscape is
diverse – from the steep hills of Kępa Oksywska and Kępa
Redłowska, to the cliffs, valleys and two small rivers. Nearly
50% of Gdynia’s total land area is forested and forms part of
the Tri-City Landscape Park.

the City and its sites
Gdynia is one of Poland’s youngest cities and a very
unique place. Its central district is Europe’s only major city
centre to be built entirely within the 1920s and 1930s. The
centre of Gdynia is home to Modernist townhouses and
public buildings. The unique aspect of Gdynia’s architecture
shows maritime influence, reflected in round windows,
oblong constructions or outdoor stairways. Most of these
buildings were designed by Poland’s top architects and today
serve as some of the best examples of Modernism in
architecture.
Remnants of the old village life can still be found in
Gdynia. Historic churches, inns, huts and farmhouses from
the late 19th and early 20th century can be seen in the districts
of Wielki Kack, Oksywa and Orłowo. The last of these is also
home to the Kurhaus and Aldershorst buildings, which date
back to the early 19th century. The district of Kamienna Góra
is the site of many historic villas.
Gdynia is known for its walking areas along the coast.
The foremost of these is the South Pier (Molo Południowe),
where two historic ships are moored. This area is also home
to the Gdynia Aquarium. Passenger ships and water trams
depart from the South Pier to Hel, Jastarnia, Gdańsk, Sopot
and Kaliningrad. Other walking areas include the promenade
known as Bulwar Nadmorski and several miles of sandy
beaches. The sea port in the French Pier (Nabrzeże
Francuskie) was the original port for Trans-Atlantic voyages
of Polish ships.
The northern district of Babie Doły is the site of ruins of
a Nazi torpedo station.

the film fund
The mayor of Poznań announced his intent to establish a regional film fund in 2007. The agreement between
municipal and regional authorities was signed in September 2008 and two weeks later the first edition of the
Wielkopolska Film Support Competition was announced, with Estrada Poznańska responsible for its organization.
Six applications were submitted – five documentaries and one animation. Two projects were subsequently financed
– the documentary Zrabowane dzieciństwo by Jacek Kubiak and animated film Jedyne udane powstanie by Grzegorz
Grześkowiak.

Budget
The regional and municipal authorities allocated
1 million PLN (260,000 EUR) to supporting film production in
2008. They have also announced that in 2009 and following
years this support for film production will continue based on
the same criteria, aims and financial conditions. Starting in
2008, a new objective of the competition is to support
internationally acclaimed filmmakers and projects featuring
renowned talent that do not fulfill the competition criteria
but have plans for a premiere in Poznań. Auxiliary activities
are in preparation, including the publication of a regional
guide for filmmakers.
entry conditions
The purpose of the competition is supporting
production of feature films, TV series, documentaries and
animated films. Financing is available to projects related to
the region through subject matter, shooting locations or
participation of residents and businesses from the region.
The financial participation of Estrada Poznańska cannot
exceed 50% of the budget, with at least 10% of the budget
being covered by funds other than public funding.
Furthermore, at least 50% of the budget must be spent in
the Wielkopolska region.

In assessing applications, experts focus on a few key
criteria: relating to the region, artistic, humanist and ethical
values of the project, structuring of the text, complexity of
characters, quality of dialogue, innovativeness, originality,
filmography of the director and producer (artistic and
financial results), the financial situation and expected
economic results of the project.
The results of the first edition of the competition were
announced within 30 days of the application deadline. The
next edition will be announced in 2009, once the necessary
agreement between municipal and regional authorities is in
place.
Wielkopolska
The region lies in western Poland, along the Warta
river. It is considered to be the cradle of Polish nationality.
But it is more than the birthplace of the Polish state. Poznań
is home to the Muza cinema – Poland’s oldest running
cinema, where the first screenings took place less than one
year after the Lumière brothers launched their film in Paris.
One of the first Polish films, recently found in the Bois d’Arcy
film archive, dates back to 1908 and was filmed in
Wielkopolska.
The history and beauty of the region were immortalized
in the historical series Najdłuższa wojna nowoczesnej Europy
and in the films of Filip Bajon. In Biedrusk (near Poznań), the
director Jerzy Hoffman filmed several scenes of his
blockbuster With Fire and Sword. The town of Kwilcz is home
to the foundation established by Jan A.P. Kaczmarek.
landscape
The region is dominated by lowlands with rolling hills,
vast river valleys, lakes, meadows, forests and wetlands. The
northern part of the region is home to almost 800 lakes, and
nearly 26% of the total area of the region is forested. The
most interesting natural sites include Morasko – home to
craters resulting from a meteor crash, and Rogalin – Europe’s
largest preserve of oak trees.

the film fund
The first call for entries for municipal support to film production was announced in 2007. It was the first such project
in Poland. For promoting Polish cinema and establishing the first regional film fund, the mayor of Łódź was awarded

over the past two years, including four features (Stary człowiek i pies by Witold Leszczyński and Andrzej Kostenko,
Spring 1941 by Uri Barbash, Jestem Twój by Mariusz Grzegorzek and Nie ten człowiek by Paweł Wendorff), three
animated films (Miasto płynie by Balbina Bruszewska, Zuzanna by Daria Kopiec and Danny Boy by Marek Skrobecki)
and two documentaries (Kern by Grzegorz Królikiewicz and Nekropolis by Andrzej Czulda).

łódź
Located in central Poland, Łódź is the main town of the
Łódzkie voivodship, but it is also known as the film capital of
Poland. It was here that Zakazane piosenki, Poland’s first
feature project after World War II, was shot in 1945.
Several years later the Łódź Film Studio saw the
production of Przygoda na Mariensztacie – Poland’s first fulllength feature shot in colour. By the end of the 1940s the
National Film School was established – the school that
would become the alma mater of Andrzej Wajda, Roman
Polański, Krzysztof Kieślowski, Krzysztof Zanussi, Piotr
Sobociński, Jerzy Wójcik, Sławomir Idziak and many others.
Łódź is also commonly known as the Polish Hollywood
– the city is home to a number of annual film events. The
most renowned among these is the PlusCamerimage
International Film Festival of the Art of Cinematography. A
true ambassador of the film industry in Łódź is David Lynch –
fascinated by the city’s architecture, he shot his Inland
Empire there and now plans to make it the site of his own
film studio. Finally, like any decent film capital, Łódź has its
own Avenue of the Stars.
landscape
Łódź is Poland’s fourth largest city. It is home to a total
of 18 rivers and streams, the smallest of which are hidden in
underground canals. Several parks can be found in Łódź,
some dating back to the 19th century. The largest among
them is the Piłsudski Park, covering an area of 172 hectares.
It is home to Poland’s largest botanical gardens, a zoo, a
theme park and nature preserve.

the city and its sites
Łódź is home to almost 1200 historical buildings. The
entire city has a historical feeling to it, as it is Poland’s bestpreserved example of a 19th-century industrial city. The oldest
buildings in Łódź date back to the 18th century and include
the Franciscan Monastery in Łagiewniki and the wooden
Church of St. Joseph.
The most valued examples of relicts of the industrial
Łódź include palaces, villas and townhouses built in neoRenaissance, Baroque and Art Nouveau styles. Łódź is home
to nearly 100 such buildings, some of which have been
reconstructed in the finest details. A perfect example of this
is the Poznański Palace, also known as the Louvre of Łódź.
Industrial architecture can best be seen in eclectic factories,
weaving houses and residential areas, including the
enormous complex known as Księży Młyn.
One of the city’s best-known areas is Piotrkowska – at
over 4 km in length, it is one of Europe’s longest walking
streets. Today it is a shopping district, yet the townhouses
that line both sides of the street are examples of modernist
and eclectic architecture from the late 19th and early 20th
century.
Recently a heritage park of wooden architecture was
established in Łódź. It is home to five reconstructed weaving
houses, a summerhouse and Evangelical church dating back
to 1848.
Europe’s largest Jewish cemetery is also to be found in
Łódź. Located at Bracka street and covering an area of 42
hectares, it is the site of 180,000 graves and 65,000
masebhas.

the film fund
Before the film fund was established in 2008, the local authorities already had substantial experience in financing
film production in the region. Recently supported productions include Droga do raju by Gerwazy Reguła and Mała
Moskwa (Little Moscow) by Waldemar Krzystek, awarded the Grand Prix at the 2008 Polish Film Festival in Gdynia.
The first regional film competition was announced in 2008. Its organization and budget was placed in the trust of
the Odra-Film regional cultural organization. The first projects co-produced under this scheme were features Afonia
i pszczoły by Jan Jakub Kolski and Nie będziesz wiedział by Ewa Stankiewicz, as well as the animated film
Przebudzenie by Wojciech Majewski.

Budget
The budget for the regional film competition in 2008
was set at 2 million PLN (560,000 EUR) and was not divided
between different types of production. The authorities have
declared that as of 2009 the allocated budget will gradually
increase. There are also plans to modify the requirement of
spending part of the budget in the region.
entry conditions
The Film Fund provides funding for the production of
feature, documentary and animated films. Financing is
available to projects related to the region through their
shooting location or participation of local individuals and
enterprises. Up to 50% of the film budget can be subsidized,
with at least 10% of the budget being covered by funds other
than public funding. Regardless of the amount of received
support, Odra-Film becomes the co-producer of supported
projects and 50% of the budget must be spent within the
region.
Competition applications are assessed by experts –
three for feature projects, two in the case of documentaries

and animation films. Assessment criteria include relating to
the region, as well as artistic, humanist and ethical values of
the project, structuring of the text, complexity of characters,
quality of dialogue, innovativeness, originality and
contribution to European cultural diversity. Other key factors
include the filmography of the director and producer (artistic
and financial results), the financial situation, expected
economic results and expected percentage of the budget to
be spent in the region.
All applications are assessed within 60 days of the
application deadline. The next regional film competition will
be announced in January 2009.
lower silesia
The region of Lower Silesia is located in southwestern
Poland, bordering on Germany and the Czech Republic. Apart
from unique landscapes and a considerable number of
historic sites, the region is also known for its long-standing
tradition of film production through the Feature Film Studio
in Wrocław. It was this studio that participated in the
production of such projects as Ashes and Diamonds by
Andrzej Wajda, The Saragossa Manuscript by Wojciech Has
and most recently Nightwatching by Peter Greenaway.

landscape
The region is known for its diverse landscapes. It is said
that the only formation Lower Silesia lacks is the sea. Home
to one of Central Europe’s largest forested areas, the area is
criss-crossed by glacial hills and river valleys.
Lower Silesia is also famous for its spectacularly
picturesque Sudety mountains and their two major chains:
Karkonosze and Stołowe. In the Middle Ages the Sudety
Mountains were commonly known as the Treasury of Europe
due to gold deposits; it is said that gold can still be found
there today. The Karkonosze National Park is rich in
waterfalls, precipices, grassy mountain peaks and glacial
chasms. The table-shaped Stołowe Mountains are a perfect
example of slab mountains, built of layers of sandstone. One
of the most enchanting places in this area is the Błędne Skały
maze, covering an area of 20 hectares. Other unique sites
include the valley of the Odra river and the Milickie lake
complex.

cities and sites
Wrocław, Kłodzko, Legnica, Wałbrzych, Głogów and
Świdnica.
The major cultural centre of the region is Wrocław –
one of Poland’s most beautiful cities. It is home to the
largest complex of Gothic church architecture in Poland. The
local Town Hall is regarded to be one of the most beautiful
medieval buildings in Europe.
The thousand-year-old town of Kłodzko is famous for its
historical market square, tenement houses, churches,
fortress and underground touring route connecting ancient
merchant cellars. Unique historical sites can also be visited
in a number of local towns – the Cistersian monastery in
Lubiąż, Baroque abbey in Krzeszów, the basilica in
Wambierzyce, to mention only a few. The region is also
home to eleven picturesque spas.
Lower Silesia is home to more historic sites than any
other region. This may be why the Lower Silesia Monument
Miniature Park was built in Kowary as a miniature version of
the region’s most interesting sites. Those visiting Lower
Silesia can not only come across world-class sites such as the
churches in Świdnica and Jawor, but also a number of castles
and castle ruins.
The region is also known for its underground
attractions. These include a number of old mines and
mysterious corridors, dating back to World War II.

Silesia
Silesia is located in southern Poland, along the Vistula,
Odra and Warta rivers. It borders on the Czech Republic and
Slovakia. Because of its picturesque landscapes, the region is
an interesting destination for filmmakers. The region is also
home to many industrial sites, such as ironworks, coalmines,
mining villages and housing estates, as well as a number of
castles and post-industrial sites.
landscape
Silesia is Poland’s most industrialized region and one of
the foremost such regions in Europe. Yet it remains highly
diverse in terms of landscape, with an abundance of
mountains, highlands and lowlands. This diversity enriches
the local flora and fauna, even in densely populated areas.
The region is home to 60 nature preserves, established to
protect various forests, waterways and wetlands. Key natural
attractions of the regions include the forest-covered hills of
Beskid and picturesque landscapes of Jura KrakowskoCzęstochowska, known for its rock formations, deep valleys
and caves.

cities and Sites
Silesia has 71 cities, the largest of which are Katowice,
Częstochowa, Gliwice, Sosnowiec, Bielsko-Biała, Dąbrowa
Górnicza, Zabrze and Bytom. Katowice is located in the heart
of Poland’s largest agglomeration. Its landscape is mostly
postindustrial, with working and closed industrial plants, as
well as old mining villages and residential areas. The largest
such areas are the districts of Nikiszowiec in Katowice,
Kaufhaus in Ruda Śląska and Biskupice in Zabrze.
The region is also home to a number of castles and
palaces, used over the years mainly for defense or
representative purposes. One of the best-preserved of these
is the castle complex in Pszczyna, built in neo-Renaissance
style. The palace museum still holds about 80% of the
original fin-de-siecle interior artifacts.

PRzykUTA / WIkIPEDIA
Smaller, yet similarly interesting castles form the Eagle
Nest Trail – 25 castles located along a line of 163 km. Many
of them are in ruins. The most picturesque include the
remains of the castle at Ogrodzieniec near Zawiercie, as well
as castles in Olsztyn, Bobolice and Mirów.
Tarnowskie Góry is home to two silver and lead mines,
where the main attractions include a 600-metre-long boat
ride through the mine corridors.
Zabrze is the site of a number of coal mining relics,
including the Guido underground ethnographic museum, the
Queen Luiza ethnographic museum and the Coal Mining
Museum.
The region is also home to one of Poland’s oldest
narrow gauge railways. Its 23-kilometre-long track has been
in use for over 150 years.

małopolska
The region is located in southern Poland and borders
on Slovakia in the south. Thanks to its many unique sites,
Małopolska is one of Poland’s major tourist destinations.
Apart from many manor houses, churches, castle ruins and
picturesque villages, the region is also home to ancient
forests, wild mountain river, breathtaking rock formations
and high mountains. The Polish Tatra mountains were
featured as Kashmir region in the film Fanaa. This film was
shot in a number of locations around Małopolska. The region
and its possibly most picturesque area, known as Jura
Krakowsko-Częstochowska, were also featured in many Polish
films. A number of scenes for Andrzej Wajda’s Katyn were
shot in Krakow. The city has also drawn attention from a
number of filmmakers from around the world, including
Steven Spielberg with his Schindler’s List, and most recently
Petr Zelenka and his project entitled The Karamazov
Brothers.
landscape
The region consists mainly of highlands and mountains.
The highest peak in the region is also Poland’s highest
mountain – the Rysy peak in the Tatra mountains – the
highest mountains between the Alps and the Caucasus. The
region is also home to the Pieniny mountains, the
picturesque Gorce and the gentle slopes of Beskid. The local
mountains abound in deep caves, the largest of which is 824
metres deep. The most famous Łokietek and Ciemna grottos
are located in the Jura region and are part of the Ojców
National Park. This park is also home to many other
interesting rock formations, some of which are up to 150
million years old. Finally, the Małopolska region is the site of
Poland’s only desert, known as Pustynia Błędowska.

Kraków, Tarnów, Nowy Sącz, Nowy Targ and Zakopane. The
Małopolska region is also home to half of Poland’s UNESCO
World Heritage sites, including Krakow’s Historic Centre, the
Wieliczka Salt Mine, the Auschwitz-Birkenau Concentration
Camp, the Mannerist Architectural and Park Landscape
Complex and Pilgrimage Park in Kalwaria Zebrzydowska, and
the Wooden Churches of Southern Poland (in Binarowa,
Dębno, Lipnica Murowana and Sękowa). Other significant
architectural sites include the Benedictine Monastery in
Tyniec and castles in Pieskowa Skała and Niedzica. Some of
the most picturesque villages in the region are Porąbka
Uszewska, Biecz, Krynica-Zdrój, Lanckorona and, perhaps
most famously, Zakopane.
The best-known historic city in the region is Krakow. Its
most famous site is Wawel, which houses the Royal Castle
and Wawel Cathedral, both excellent examples of
Renaissance architecture. Other key sites are located in and
around the main marketplace. These include the Sukiennice,
the old Town Hall and Gothic basilica. The marketplace is
surrounded by a number of historic townhouses. Krakow is
also home to the old Jewish district known as Kazimierz,
known for its narrow streets, old townhouses, historic shops,
restaurants and synagogues.

Other Cities and Regions
All of the above mentioned regional film funds have been established over the past two years. This means that the
very young tradition of regional support for film production is developing rapidly. There are many regions in Poland
where such endeavours can still be established or are already being implemented.
regional film funds
New regional film funds will be established in the regions of Mazovia and Podlasie. However, the most advanced
plans are under way in the city of Lublin. The regional film fund in this city will be established in 2010, but already
in 2009 the municipal authorities will grant 300,000 PLN (78,000 EUR) to supporting film production. The spring of
2009 will bring the launch of a competition for documentary film projects related to the 440th anniversary of the
Union of Lublin. There are also plans for selecting a feature film script that will help enhance the city’s image. Issues
most related to the city’s roots and its present identity include multiculturalism, religious tolerance, the grandness
of the Jagiellonian period, Renaissance art and literature, as well as Jewish tradition.
landscape
Areas not covered in previous chapters are home to
over half of Poland’s national parks. While it’s difficult to
draw comparison among them, certainly one worth
mentioning is the Słowiński National Park – Europe’s largest
area of mobile sand dunes. The wetlands of the Biebrza river
form an interesting site – one of Europe’s largest virgin
wildlife preserves. The Biebrza river is Europe’s only river to
have maintained its original natural character in its entirety.
Another area worth mentioning is Białowieża – the forest
complex that is the only remaining area of the primeval
forests of European lowlands. This area, located in
northeastern Poland and Belarus, covers an area of over
150,000 hectares, of which 62,000 hectares are in Poland.

cities and Sites
Cities not mentioned in previous chapters include
Warsaw, with its Royal Castle, palace in Wilanów, palace and
park in Łazienki, Old Town, townhouses, fortifications,
churches, monasteries, the Citadel and the main street of
Krakowskie Przedmieście.
Other interesting cities include Toruń, Lublin,
Sandomierz, Kazimierz and Zamość. They have an abundance
of castles, ancient storage houses, townhouses, fortifications
and city gates.
The largest castle in Poland is located in Malbork – the
medieval capital of the Teutonic knights order and Europe’s
largest Gothic fortress. The castle complex consists of three
castles and covers an area of over 20 hectares. The High
Castle has four wings and magnificent double-level galleries.
The western wing is adjacent to one of the most unique
examples of Gothic architecture.
One of the most unique palaces in Poland is located in
Moszna. This picturesque edifice has 365 rooms and 99
towers.
Poland is known for its rich selection of wooden
architecture – Catholic and Orthodox churches, manor
houses and village huts. Some of the most unique examples
are to be found in the ancient village of Biskupin, which
today houses the reconstructed village walls, gates and
streets. The Hel peninsula is home to historic fishing huts.
The largest heritage parks are to be found in Olsztynek,
Sierpc, Sanok and Kluki.

The company organizes the annual Doc Review documentary
film festival and handles the distribution of full-length
documentaries from around the world. All films are mainly
distributed in television and on DVD, with a certain number
of titles also released in cinemas (e.g. Screaming Men,
Murderball, Working Man's Death). AGAINST GRAVITY also
publishes its own series of the world's most significant
documentary productions on DVD and distributes Polish
documentary films abroad (e.g. Maciej Drygas' A Day in the
People's Republic of Poland); furthermore it also seeks
