As the organizers of the Warsaw Film Festival Post Pxrn declared, the first film event of this kind in Poland, “It is an independent artistic initiative that attempts to give support and courage to everyone who disagrees with what politicians and the Church have to offer.”
For those who disagree with the increasingly stringent restrictions on women’s rights, both economic and reproductive. Lack of sex education in schools. About the intimidation of young people by religious fundamentalists. Adolescent suicide due to social repression of their sexuality. For everything that happens in the twenty-first century in Central Europe
– The official announcement of the festival, which was founded on the initiative of Roman Gotic, Agha Szrider and Rafai Schwerk.
The festival sparked a strong reaction from the national organization Młodzież Wszechpolska, which planned a demonstration on Tuesday evening under the slogan “Stop obscenity!” In front of the Murano cinema where the event is taking place.
“Warsaw Kino Murano is organizing an obscene festival of pornographic films. We do not approve of vulgar and obscene content in a public place! Let’s gather on June 7 at 19:30 in front of Cinema Murano to pray for atonement for public sins against purity ”- we read in social media .
How was the festival planned? From June 7 to 12, 2022, nearly 300 films from around the world will be shown, grouped into 45 thematic groups, mostly short and medium-length films. Entry to the event is only permitted to persons over the age of 18. The presentations are accompanied by discussions with authors and creators, discussions, workshops and presentations.
The festival begins with the film “Victory of Sodom”. As we read, “it is a collective vision of artistic freedom born of a desire for vengeance, a path leading to the overthrow of patriarchal morals and a call for the eventual liberation of sex from binary traps.” This is how director Joyo Anshu invited the show:
