Animation Around Europe: Focus On Poland – O!Pla Across The Borders

O!PLA 2017 – almost 5000 jury members, 61 festival venues located between Baltic Sea and Tatra Mountains, a total of 121 shorts in 9 competition categories – these figures briefly outline the specifics of the most unique and completely grassroots, biggest Polish celebration of animated film. Now O!PLA is back with a new programme introducing viewers from around the world to the latest and coolest of Polish animation (O!PLA means „Oh! Polish Animation“). And traditionally, the programme is created by „the biggest jury in the world“ – audiences from all participating cities and towns. For 5 years, O!PLA has consequently grown in size, but two things remain constant – independence and passion, which are at the heart of O!PLA.
