Gamechangers

The year 2022 becomes the year of a fundamental break — not only in Ukraine but also in the world. And we are not objects or passive observers in this process. We are the gamechangers. So this year, our retrospective program is inspired by Ukraine as a gamechanger.


Gamechangers is a program dedicated to films and directors who have made the world look at their countries and their cinema in a different way. Iran, Denmark, New Zealand, Romania and Taiwan will not be the first countries that the average viewer will consider in connection with cinema. But the films we will present in the program have changed the game, including not only these filmmakers, but entire communities associated with them, in the big world of cinema.


The sixth film of the retrospective program will be The Name: Carmen by Jean-Luc Godard – in memory of the outstanding director who became for many the personification of a permanent revolution and inspired to change cinema.
