NEW URBAN LEGENDS
POLISH TITLE: NOWE LEGENDY MIEJSKIE
REPRESENTED BY KFF
New Urban Legends is an experimental film project created by the children for the children. Ten-year-olds from several Warsaw schools invented, told and wrote down the stories that came to their minds in connection with the legends. Kids learned the inner workings of a film set. The goal was to broaden the children’s horizons and allow them to take part in a real film adventure. Thanks to the help of professional filmmakers, three amazing legends were created: Zeboludy, Pragenia and Pan Sowka i fryzjer z Targowka.
