The Festival “Przepływy”

Welcome to festival „Przepływy”!

We invite you to the Festival „Przepływy,” which will take place from September 5–7, 2025, in the picturesque Port Cigacice and on the adjacent 6-hectare grounds. This unique event, marking the end of the course year, combines culture, dialogue, and art, blending into the traditional rhythm of the region’s ceremonial customs and the Winobranie festival in Zielona Góra.

Why it’s worth it?

The Festival „Przepływy” includes:

• Outdoor Cinema and Film Club: Screenings of documentary and reportage films created during international gatherings at the International Meeting House (MDS).
• Meetings with Creators and Experts: Panels featuring film creators, local community leaders, filmmakers, and local government representatives, fostering engaging discussions.
• Intercultural Exchange: A bridge between the region’s traditions and history and the contemporary world, driven by dialogue and cooperation.
• Online Format: Live-streamed events and interactive panels accessible to participants from around the globe.

Using digital post-production techniques, each participant can add their unique commentary and perspective on the surrounding reality.
