Echoes of Katyn International Film Festival On Totalitarianisms

2022 is the 82th anniversary of the Katyn massacre. In connection with this, the Institute of National Remembrance has decided to organize third edition of the "Echoes of Katyn" International Film Festival on Totalitarianisms, the subject of which will cover the broadly understood issue of totalitarianism. The symbolic Katyn is an opportunity to remind about the criminal totalitarian systems of the 20th century and talks about contemporary totalitarianisms. Creators of various film genres from around the world will be invited to participate in our Festival. Our idea is to create a space in which we will consider the issue of totalitarianism in many aspects. For us, the Katyn massacre is a starting point, a contribution to discussion, to a holistic, international view of the problem of totalitarianism. An issue that has an impact on the lives of millions of people not only in history but also today. In addition to film screenings, thematic meetings with directors, producers, historians and people of culture and art will be an important element of the Festival. They will undoubtedly become an important supplement to the content of the presented films. Please accept our invitation to the "Echoes of Katyn" International Film Festival on totalitarianisms. Our initiative has a long history. It will be third edition of Festival, but in the past we have organized 10 editions of the film review "Echoes of Katyn".
