Tandem has qualified for the El Dorado Film Festival! 🎬

The cinematographic etude by Katarzyna Lewek tells the story of Antek, who lives as if in a cage. A stationary bike, two pet mice, and a sofa make up his entire world—a world belonging to someone who may never walk again. However, one day, an unexpected visit reminds him of an old passion, and a friend takes him outside to try riding a tandem bike. 🚴‍♂️

🎬 Tandem | Directed and shot by Katarzyna Lewek | Production management by Bernadeta Mende & Maja Zilbert | Produced by the Krzysztof Kieślowski Film School, University of Silesia in Katowice, 2023.

The festival will take place from February 26 to March 2, 2025.

Congratulations to the entire team involved in the project, and good luck at the festival!

We would like to thank the group of 27 representatives from the Student Governments of universities in the United Kingdom for their visit to the Krzysztof Kieślowski Film School!

Last week, on January 9, 2025, the guests toured the University of Silesia campus and got acquainted with our educational offerings. We are glad for the fruitful exchange of experiences and invite you to check out a brief photo report from this event.

The visit was part of a study program that covered the Visegrad Group countries. The group has already visited, among others, Corvinus University in Budapest, Comenius University in Bratislava, Charles University in Prague, the University of Wrocław, Jagiellonian University, and the University of Silesia. The aim of the visit was to explore issues related to students' rights and responsibilities, as well as to learn about ways of supporting students and developing international cooperation.

The group was accompanied by Anna Szrama, a faculty member from our department.
