Off Plus Camera 2010: International Festival Of Independent Cinema.

Film festivals in Poland are great. First, you need to find the well hidden directions.


Then you need to head up the steps of a fascinating old building.


You head up a variety of staircases, feeling like you've trespassed somewhere by mistake.


And finally, at last, you see a screen and know a movie is about to commence.


This is the Off Plus Camera 2010 International Festival Of Independent Cinema, in Krakow, Poland, and it ends today.



Care to share?

  1. Sorry, but its a shit what youre writing here.
    I'm russian and I came to Cracov to spend there a few fantastic days and I DON'T regret anything.
    Thats a pity, that you didnt write anything about great artist who were f.ex. in jury (Mike Figgis, John Cooper, Zbigniew Preisner and more). I can only recommend:

  2. Hey there - I think you have misinterpreted the meaning of my article here. I wasn't in town for the festival, I happened across it by accident - I only got to see one film, and it was a great venue, in this wonderful little screening room. I really enjoyed it and this post is meant to show my singular experience, and hint at how charming and wonderful Krakow is. It wasn't about reviewing the festival as a whole.

    Am glad you had such a great time though, I wish I was there for the whole thing and next year I think I will!
