This year, Marché du Film takes place from June 22-26 online.

Among the 10 projects selected by the Polish Film Institute to be presented at the fair to the representatives of the world film industry there is a full-length Polish-Romanian documentary co-production, "Koniec Świata w Dolnie Łez" ("The End of the World in a Valley of Tears") about the last in Europe community of lepers.
Jarosław Wszędybył is the screenwriter and the director of the film. The film is coproduced by Przemysław Miękinia and his company Before my Eyes, and a Romanian company, Film Parade, winner of the Golden Bear at the Berlin Festival for the film "Child's Position".
