OPEN CALL: Polish Short Films at HER Docs Film Festival
We love short-form cinema, especially works that experiment with form, tell unconventional stories at the intersection of art and non-fiction and explore diverse filmmaking techniques such as video art and animation. The HER Docs showcase is an annual short film program accompanied by Q&A sessions with the filmmakers.
What films are we looking for?
- Works created within the broad field of non-fiction, including documentary films, experimental films, animations and video works;
- Films produced in Poland, Polish co-productions or works by Polish filmmakers produced abroad;
- Running time of up to 30 minutes;
- Films produced in 2025 or 2026.
We welcome submissions from women, non-binary, and gender-diverse filmmakers.
The submission deadline is June 30, 2026.
