The Ann Arbor Polish Film Festival is an annual celebration of Polish cinema, organized by the Polish Cultural Fund in collaboration with the Ann Arbor Polonia Association and the U-M Polish Student Association. Since its inception in 1993, the festival has brought audiences a vibrant selection of contemporary Polish documentaries, short films, and feature-length movies—each offering unique perspectives on Polish culture and global issues alike.
A highlight of the festival is its juried competition, which recognizes outstanding achievements in three categories: documentary film, short narrative film, and film debut.
