Marta Z. Nowak's Burnout had its international premiere last Friday at FEST – New Directors New Films Festival in Portugal. The 20th edition of the festival took place from June 24 to July 1, 2024.

It's great to be in carefully selected international company, so we warmly congratulate on this important qualification for the official festival selection. We wish the entire team success in gaining more memorable film festival experiences!

BURNOUT | directed by Marta Z. Nowak | cinematography by Jakub Stoszek | production management by Gabriela Fita, Tomasz Widera & Wiktoria Goczoł | produced by the Krzysztof Kieślowski Film School of the University of Silesia, 2024.

A young woman experiences unsettling visions while working. When her new skill becomes an issue, she tries to regain control over her life in a similarly unsettling way.

The creation of the film and Marta's trip to Portugal for the premiere would not have been possible without the support of the Polish Film Institute, which initially funded the film and subsequently provided financial assistance for our student's journey to the festival.

Thank you!
