The biggest documentary film festival in Poland, Millennium Docs Against Gravity is also the only film festival in Europe to take place simultaneously in 8 separate cities (Warsaw, Wroclaw, Gdynia, Katowice, Poznan, Bydgoszcz, Lublin, Łódź). Now with their pandemic-inspired hybrid format, the festival is truly available to everyone with a Polish IP address as over 100 films will be available to stream online (with English subtitles) for 2 weeks after the festival's 10-day cinema run; in fact, films from the festival are available to stream year-round at vod.mdag.pl. As always, the programme will be filled with documentary films that touch upon the most pressing issues of the contemporary world - politics, society, human rights, women’s issues, ecology, psychology, science, philosophy, engaged journalism, sport, art, pop culture, and architecture. From this diversity of subjects, over 100 profound films will be screened, designed to challenge your thoughts on current events and sheer existence, or as the key phrase of the festival boldly states: 'Check whether you understand the world, and whether the world understands you.' In other words, the festival - which awards a prize for the best full-length documentary - is a reality check for audiences, which aims to educate its audience with eye-opening films on the most important issues of the day.
