A diploma film of acting students “Crystal Girl” screening at "Different Look" Section of Gdynia Film Festival. Lots of viewers were present and many interesting questions asked.
Most of the film’s screenings are already over. After the second one the audience met some of the film-makers: the director, Artur Ubrański, the actors: Magdalena Celmer, Joanna Zagórska, Natalia Klepacka, Mateusz Kocięcki, Oskar Stoczyński; editors - Alan Zajer and Nikodem Chabior, the film’s producer - Agata Golańska, and the production manager, Witek Franczak. The audience was thrilled with the opportunity of meeting the young actors having seen them on the big screen in their first full-length film, so the meeting was very enjoyable and fruitful.
