One of the boldest projects in the history of Polish animation Kill It and Leave This City, made for 14 years, will open the 20th New Horizons International Film Festival in Wrocław.
New Horizons International Film Festival
Each year, New Horizons International Film Festival hosts several dozens of film directors from all over the world – from debutants to undisputed film masters.
One of the key components of the festival’s mission is to present the achievements of the cinema masters and discover the works of those artists, who are less known, yet their work is of a tremendous importance for the creators of the festival.
New Horizons International Film Festival started in 2001 and takes place in Wroclaw, Poland
