Festival 2026

Despite the challenges we face, we press on — because we know this festival matters. We are doing everything we can to make sure this year’s festival takes place in its full form.

We need your help.

If we raise the necessary funds together, we will gather on October 1–4 at the Gdynia Film Centre, the Naval Museum, and Grunwald Square.

Over four days, we will screen dozens of documentary and feature films, host debates and meetings with filmmakers and protagonists from Poland and around the world, and open exhibitions and author talks on contemporary history.
The NNW Festival is a place where we talk about the paths to freedom — a space for witnesses of history and their families, who proudly share their stories and inspire us to tell history through the language of cinema.

Together, over all these years, we have built something truly special. We want to keep building.

Admission to all events is FREE — and we want to keep it that way. That is why we are asking for your support — from those who already know the NNW Festival, and from those who hold Memory and Freedom close to their hearts.
