We closely work with key int. festivals, broadcasters, distributors, sales agents, markets, or training initiatives and serve as the GATEWAY TO EAST EUROPEAN DOCUMENTARY FILM.

The film explores the issue of gay and lesbian rights in a conservative society which is undergoing a very dynamic transformation, successfully allowing for the rising number of liberal changes. The documentary focuses on the diverse and complex identity struggles involved in the "coming out" process. It profiles both celebrities who are openly gay in Poland, as well as young people from small towns who still haven't completely "came out". But the spirit of change is becoming more and more present in today's Poland. Coming Out Polish Style features several characters who share their intimate experiences when "coming out" as gays or lesbians, and of the dramas and joys resulting from becoming true to oneself and finding integrity in the world.
