Polish Filmmakers Association
- Polish Filmmakers Association
(Stowarzyszenie Filmowców Polskich, SFP)
With approximately twelve hundred members, the Polish Filmmakers Association is the main organization representing Polish film professionals. The association was founded in 1966 and headed until 1978 by its cofounder
Jerzy Kawalerowicz.
Andrzej Wajda, who replaced Kawalerowicz, resigned in December 1983 when the association was suspended for two years after the introduction of martial law.
Janusz Majewski then led the association from 1983 to 1990. The association, since 1990 headed by
Jacek Bromski, is also one of the main organizers of the annual
Festival of Polish Films and participates in several other film events, including film retrospectives and seminars.
