28th Ann Arbor Polish Film Festival

Dear AAPFF Sponsors, Volunteers, Viewers & Friends,

We hope that you know your generosity truly have made a difference – our Festival has not only survived, but also thrived in these unusual times.

While 2021 brought its own set of challenges, this year we received a similar number of entries to our festival competition (48) as in the past. We were able to offer viewing of the top selections in a hybrid format, both virtually and in our wonderful Michigan Theater. Our feature presentations included five most recently released films, screened over three days. After two years it was finally an opportunity to not only experience movies in a real theater, but also meet with the community of Polish films enthusiasts (even if masked) and enjoy sampling of traditional Polish sweet treats.

A festival of this size is not possible without generous support of our Sponsors, Volunteers and Friends. Thanks to all of you for your ongoing annual support of the festival.

We can’t thank you enough to help us build the AAPFF into an important community event of south-eastern Michigan, consistently celebrating year after year Polish culture.

Our best wishes to you and your loved ones for a healthy, safe and joyous new year.

Let’s meet again in the Fall of 2022!

The Polish Cultural Fund & The 28th Ann Arbor Polish Film Festival Committee
