Let’s have a glimpse at Cannes, where extracts from Jagoda Szelc’ debut film were shown in a closed screening for film professionals from all over the world. The film was presented by its producer.
"Tower. A Bright Day" is a full length feature debut film of our direction student Jagoda Szelc and its extracts were shown as part of the programme „New Horizons’ Polish Days Fest. Goes to Cannes”. "The Goes to Cannes" is a programme which offers to renowned festivals the possibility to showcase a selection of works-in-progress still looking for sales agents, distributors or a festival selection. The film and the school were represented in Cannes by Marcin Malatyński, the film’s producer and the head of international relations.
How did the film “Tower” find itself in Cannes? Out of the initiative of the Polish Film Institute the Festival T-Mobile, New Horizons had found itself among 10 world festivals which could showcase selected films as works-in-progress in the programme, "The Goes to Cannes".
