The gala Polish premiere of “Woman of” by Małgorzata Szumowska and Michał Englert took place in Warsaw, with a large crowd of guests in attendance. Here are the photos from an emotional evening. The film can already be seen at special preview screenings in selected cinemas, and it goes on general release on 5 April.
The world premiere of “Woman of” took place at the most recent Venice International Film Festival, where the film screened in the Main Competition. The Warsaw event was attended by the filmmakers and cast, including Małgorzata Hajewska-Krzysztofik, Joanna Kulig, Mateusz Więcławek, Bogumiła Bajor, Jacek Braciak, Wojciech Mecwaldowski and Marta Nieradkiewicz. Guests included Ralph Kamiński and Piotr Jacoń, figures from the activist community involved in the making of the film, such as Anu Czerwiński, Edyta Baker and Anna Grodzka, and even Minister of Justice Adam Bodnar. Joanna Kulig and Małgorzata Szumowska appeared at the cinema in creations by Magda Butrym. Małgorzata Hajewska-Krzysztofik posed on the red carpet in a suit by Izabela Łapińska.
COLLABORATION WITH SEXEDPL
The premiere of “Woman of” is not just about red carpets. As part of a collaboration with the SEXEDPL foundation, educational projects connected with the film have been created. Special screenings of the film in Białystok, Łódź and Lublin were followed by debates aimed at exploring the themes raised in the film in greater depth. Their goal was not only to provide a moving cinematic experience, but also to inspire discussion and reflection on important social issues. The foundation’s experts have also prepared lesson plans for secondary school students, which are available for download on the NEXT FILM and SEXED websites.
