Last but not least, the festival will showcase some recent films from Kosovo.

Other treats awaiting the audience members who flock to the festival venues are the biggest arthouse hits from the Berlinale and Cannes, spearheaded by the Palme d’Or winner Triangle of Sadness by Ruben Östlund and Alcarràs [+leggi anche:

This year, the Wrocław-based gathering, which recently appointed its long-time programmers Małgorzata Sadowska and Ewa Szabłowska as its artistic directors, is unspooling under the “Cinema of Solstice” banner.
