"Draugen", directed by our lecturer, Dagmara Drzazga, won the International Documentary Film Competition at the 12. Unruly Unbreakable Cursed International Film Festival in Gdynia, receiving the main prize of Witold Pilecki.

The jury awarded the prize to Dagmara Drzazga for an extremely poetic and cinematic depiction of individual fates woven into a great story and leaving us feeling that love does not die with death. The protagonist of the document is Wojciech Bogadoł, who was incorporated into the Wehrmacht and sent to Norway.

Prize of Witold Pilecki is every year awarded to "the best film about freedom". This year, 24 films from Poland and the USA, Chile, Finland, France, Italy, Hungary, the Czech Republic and Ukraine competed in this competition category.
