EUROPEAN PREMIERE OF "21 X NEW YORK"
The results of the official selection of the Spanish festival Valladolid have already been announced. The documentary film "21 x New York City" by Piotr Stasik will have its international première here.
International Film Festival in Valladolid is one of the oldest festivals in Europe, presenting independent and art cinema. This year, the 61st edition of the festival will be held. In the programme of the Spanish festival, there is the documentary film "21 x New York" by Piotr Stasik. The film will be shown in the competition section "Time of history," and the festival presentation will be its European première.
"21 x New York" is an intimate portrait of the city and its inhabitants. We get acquainted with the protagonists in the New York subway, and we follow them to the surface in order to learn more about their lives, desires, passions, hopes and dreams - sometimes squandered, and sometimes still waiting for fulfilment. The collection of stories forms an emotional tale about loneliness which accompanies human beings living in the Western society of the 21st century.
It is worthwhile to remind that the film by Piotr Stasik was included on the list of 15 documentary films recommended for European Film Award. From among hundreds of submitted titles, the members of EFA selected the list of 15 titles, from among which, 5 nominations will be chosen. The winner will be announced during the official ceremony in Wroclaw .
The full list of qualified films is available on the festival's website.
