The 32nd Ann Arbor Polish Film Festival 

As the curtain falls on Hollywood’s award season, it’s time for us to turn the spotlight to a cinematic celebration of our own—the 32nd Ann Arbor Polish Film Festival, presented by the Polish Cultural Fund, taking place November 14-16, 2025. Since 1993, our festival has been a cornerstone of the Ann Arbor cultural scene, bringing together film enthusiasts, artists, and the Polish-American community to experience the very best of Polish cinema.
  
Each year, we proudly present a carefully curated selection of award-winning feature films, thought-provoking documentaries, and dynamic short films, all chosen through a juried competition. More than just a film festival, this is a platform for visionary Polish filmmakers—both established and emerging—who continue to push the boundaries of storytelling and cinematic artistry. We are especially excited to highlight rising young filmmakers, offering them a space to share their work with new audiences.
 
Stay tuned for more announcements on film submissions, festival program, volunteer opportunities, and ticket sales. With your support, we’re building an unforgettable festival experience, and we can’t wait to celebrate the magic of Polish cinema with you this November!
