Awarded earlier in the Blaue Blume TV Competition 2025, and presented in Miami, Brussels, Lyon, and Oslo – “love_proxy” by Marcin Niemkiewicz – with use of animation and live-action follows a love story in a world, in which a man, thanks to the brand-new invention of a robot doppelganger, can function in many different places at the same time.

Recipient of the Honorable Distinctions in the New York Cinematography Awards Competition and at the 49th Polish Film Festival in Gdynia, the “Attraction” by Aleksandra Szczepaniak focuses on a few, sunny vacation days of the adolescent siblings.
