QuoteIn the years 2018-2021, the Polish Film Institute, the Documentary and Feature Film Studios and Studio Filmow Rysunkowych implemented a Project (number POPC.02.03.02-00-0007 / 17), named:

'Digital restoration and digitization of Polish feature films, documentaries and animated films in order to ensure access in all fields of distribution (cinema, television, Internet, mobile devices) and to preserve Polish film heritage for future generations', under Sub-measure 2.3.2 'Digital sharing of resources of culture' for Measure 2.3 'Digital accessibility and usefulness of public sector information', under the Operational Programme Digital Poland for 2014-2020.

160 feature films, 71 documentaries, 474 animated films, including 10 full-length animated films have been restored as part of the project. The restoration has covered:

feature classics by outstanding Polish filmmakers, i.e. Wojciech Jerzy Has, Jerzy Skolimowski, Andrzej Munk, Jerzy Kawalerowicz, Janusz Morgenstern, Stanisław Różewicz, Kazimierz Kutz, Andrzej Kondratiuk, Lech Majewski, Krzysztof Zanussi, Feliks Falk, Filip Bajon, and many others,
films present in pop culture, including the ones directed by: Stanisław Bareja, Marek Koterski, Juliusz Machulski,
films of the Polish documentary school (including Andrzej Munk, Kazimierz Karabasz, Marcel Łoziński, Andrzej Titkow),
animated films of high artistic value (e.g. by Witold Giersz, Jerzy Kalina, Mirosław Kijowicz, Andrzej Czeczot),
animated series for children (including the multigenerational series 'Rex', 'Kidnapping of Baltazar Gabka' or a cartoon series for children titled 2 cats + 1 dog).
The project also included the digitization of 3108 unique episodes of the Polish Film Chronicle from 1945-1994.

All the above-mentioned film materials (nearly 4,000 film items) are available on the 35mm.online streaming platform, the final product of the Project. It implements the main goal of the project, which is online sharing and dissemination of restored and digitized film resources as part of the Project.

The 35mm.online platform presents the wealth of Polish cinematography. It offers artistic, educational and historical achievements of Polish cinematography to its users. They can also watch films present in pop-culture.

The 35mm.online platform has been prepared in accordance with the latest design standards. In addition to the version for web browsers, the platform is also available as an application for mobile devices (Android and iOS systems) and as an application for smart TVs (Android).

As part of the Project, the Distribution Center (a modern digital film distribution center) has been established at the Documentary and Feature Film Studios. The building, which is the seat of the Center (Chelmska Street 21/21) has been modernized and adapted to modern standards and safety requirements.

The Distribution Center has been equipped with specialized hardware, software, systems and technology platforms related to the launch of the digital repository. It creates a system of various environments that enable:

I get an error message about films not being available in my location. Does it require you to be in Poland? Pity because it has a lot of Kieślowski, including Three Colours and Przypadek (Blind Chance).

The Mollusk

Quote from: beanheadmcginty on July 18, 2022, 06:04:20 PMHas Martin Sheen ever been in a Polish film?

I'm very feeble today and this got a good laugh out of me, cheers

I'm in the UK and it's working okay for me.

I'd echo the Kieślowski recommendations and also suggest Sex Mission, a weird sci-fi comedy drama about astronauts travelling to the future where only women exist - https://35mm.online/en/vod/feature-films/sexmission - And from the same director is the even better King Size - https://35mm.online/en/vod/feature-films/king-size, a comedy about a world where tiny humanoids co-exist with your more standard kind of human being, though frustratingly there aren't any English subtitles for it on that site.

Great find! I have registered and will try to make my way through a few of them.

I watched this one last night:
The Reverse (2009) https://35mm.online/en/vod/feature-films/the-reverse

Thought it was very good - it's a dark comedy about a woman who falls in love with someone from the Secret Police. Very nicely shot and plenty of humorous moments. Apparently it created a bit of a stir in Poland upon release.

Just for my own reference I'm going to try to watch the following:


Deja Vu
https://35mm.online/vod/fabula/deja-vu

QuoteJohnny Pollack, a contract killer, is hired by the Chicago Mafia. He is to eliminate a gangster of Russian origin who fled to the USSR after cheating the mafia while doing some alcohol business. Pollack reaches Odessa by ship, claiming to be a professor of entomology.

My girlfriend says this is an old favourite of many a Pole. A ''silly comedy'' with Jerzy Stuhl of Sex Mission and Shrek fame (he voiced Donkey to good effect).

Ćma (1980)
https://35mm.online/en/vod/feature-films/the-moth

QuoteJan has his own night radio program where people can simply call and talk about own troubles. The station management does not share his compassion for lonely souls and think the program is useless. Jan has a wife with a drinking problem and a girlfriend on the side who deos not understand him either.


Ogród Luizy
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1130862/
https://35mm.online/en/vod/feature-films/louise-s-garden

QuoteA sensitive girl and a romantic gangster meet in a psychiatric hospital. She is isolated by her family, he simulates an illness to avoid punishment. Their affection develops against medical diagnosis, common sense and justice

The Welts
https://35mm.online/en/vod/feature-films/the-welts

QuoteWiktor, who was mistreated by his father as a child, is now a tormented grown-up. He meets beautiful Tania and wants to settle down but it's not easy to get rid of childhood traumas.

Boys Don't Cry
https://35mm.online/en/vod/feature-films/boys-don-t-cry

QuoteTwo friends pluck up their courage to order girls from an escort agency. Accidentally, they get involved in a game between gangsters. They will survive thanks to music that will connect the world of artists and the world of criminals.

Been recommended BDC from a few different Polish people.

Kiler
https://35mm.online/en/vod/feature-films/kiler

QuoteJurek Kiler, a friendly taxi driver, is taken for a serial killer by mistake. Captured by the police, intercepted by gangsters, he receives some 'commissions'. He simulates the murders with the help of a TV reporter.


Another ''good, silly comedy'', I'm told.
