Welcome to the website of 2nd edition of Israeli Film Festival, April 9 - 10, 2011
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Due the fact, that many public institution in Poland, Europe (City of Warsaw, Minister of Culture, Polish Film Institute, Marshall of Masovia and others) didn’t support our 2nd editions of Festivals: KOLNOA & AL-SEENIMA, we had to decline this year`s edition. We are unable to organize the events without the finance.
The 2nd editions of Festivals: KOLNOA & AL-SEENIMA will take place on April 2011.
Welcome to the website of 2nd edition of Palestinian Film Day, April 11, 2011
KOLNOA - The 1st Israeli Film Festival and Palestinian Film Day took place in April 2009 in Poland
After six years of experience of creating the Warsaw Jewish Film Festival established in 2003, our Foundation for the Development of Jewish Culture in Poland was proud to announce in April 2009 to the world film industry the new international Festival
Thanks to the festival, those who attended had the opportunity to realize the desire for peace, understanding, and the goal of cooperation that Israeli and Palestinian persons view as central to creating a brighter future of two state solutions.
Opening of the Festival was the Official Polish Premiere of WALTZ WITH BASHIR, which won our Kolnoa Audience Award.
The 2nd edition will take place on Spring, 2011 In Kinoteka Cinema in the Center of Warsaw.
During the festival we will present the best and the newest film productions of Israeli cinematography.
We know that not all Israeli productions have typical Jewish content, therefore we would like to present to Warsaw audience the films, which we cannot present on the other Jewish Film Festival as well as we would like to present acclaimed Israeli co productions, which are taking many awards and honors at world famous film festivals.
During our Israeli Film Festival in 2009 we had
Al-seenima Palestinian Film Day.
The Palestinian Film Day will be continued in Spring 2011 as a separeted event. During the 1.Palestinian Film Day in April 2009 we had Palestinian guests, who did join the workshops in Jewish Historical Institute about tragedy of Jews of Warsaw.
Our submission deadlines is February the 20th, 2011.
We hope to see you next year in...
Daniel Strehlau, Festival Director
Soon more info!
You are most welcome!
Sincerely,
Daniel Strehlau
Festival Director
