Polish Documentary Competition

The Polish Documentary Competition has existed since the first edition of the NNW Festival. As in previous years, the creators of Polish documentaries will compete for the Golden Resistor, an award given for the best film in the competition, and the Janusz Krupski Award, granted for courage and effort in searching for unruly, unbreakable, and “cursed” topics and characters. Documentaries of Polish production, made between 2022 and 2024, with a screening time of up to 90 minutes, about Polish modern history, its heroes and Polish roads to freedom are eligible for this competition.
