Poland’s Millennium Docs Against Gravity, the documentary film festival that takes place simultaneously across seven Polish cities, returns for its 23rd edition from May 7 – 17 with a focus on the audience-facing attitude that has helped it evolve from a scrappy local affair into the country’s largest film festival.

“Our main goal from day one has been to build up a documentary mass audience,” says festival director Artur Liebhart. “It was a very ambitious goal, and I think we are on our way to achieving that.”
