About
One of the key events organized by the Wajda Film Centre is the LET’S DOC Documentary Film Festival for Young Audiences. This unique festival is designed to inspire young people to engage with the art of documentary filmmaking. Through screenings, discussions, and workshops, LET’S DOC introduces young viewers to the power of documentary cinema, encouraging critical thinking and awareness of global issues. The festival also emphasizes the role of documentary films as educational tools, providing teachers and parents with valuable resources for integrating these films into learning environments. By creating opportunities for filmmakers, producers, and educators to collaborate, LET’S DOC fosters a strong network of documentary advocates who are passionate about introducing this important genre to new generations.
In addition to the festival, the Wajda Film Centre supports documentary filmmakers through initiatives like the SKOK W DOK Documentary Ideas Laboratory program, which focuses on developing films for young audiences. This initiative, alongside the Documentary Film Forum for Young Audiences organized during the Millennium Docs Against Gravity Film Festival, ensures that the Wajda Film Centre remains at the forefront of promoting documentary filmmaking as both an art form and an educational resource.
Overall, the Wajda Film Centre is a vibrant and forward-thinking institution that plays a pivotal role in nurturing Poland’s film culture and encouraging young people to explore the world through the lens of cinema.
