11th Austin Polish Film Festival

11th Austin Polish Film Festival. We are so excited to be hosting this great (4 days) event full of activities and excitement including moving feature films, narratives, documentaries, short films, animations, an international short film competition, a Polish poster exhibit, and raffles.

With all that’s going on in the world right now, learning about different cultures is key to bring humanity closer together. That’s why we are happy to take our audience on a historical and cultural adventure.

APS has organized and co-sponsored the Austin Polish Film Festival (APFF) since 2006.  This film festival is unique among all the film festivals in Austin not only because it brings Polish feature films, documentaries, shorts, animations, and the filmmakers from Poland, but it also presents the incredible art of Polish poster and their creators, while promoting cooperation between Polish and Austin creative worlds.

Poland has a rich history of filmmaking that spans over 100 years, but it is little known to most film audiences in Texas, due primarily to distribution issues and limited promotion outside of Europe. The role of the APFF is to bring quality Polish films to Austin audiences and expand awareness of Polish arts and culture.
