The festival is organized in Zamość in August every year and in 2010 its 11th edition took place. It was a special event because during the opening ceremony The Stylowy Film Culture Centre was formally opened. The cinema has been one of the most important projects implemented in Zamość over the last few years.
The summer festival provides residents and visitors with an opportunity for watching hundreds of outstanding Polish and foreign films, including short and feature length ones, film studies and animated films, those which are talked about all over the world and niche films, which are special for one reason or another.
The program of the festival includes such events as the Independent Cinema Contest and Cinema under Stars, i.e. film shows in then scenery of Zamość Old Town. Apart from that there are also reviews of the most interesting films from different countries as well as those which have been granted prestigious rewards and distinctions at film festivals all over the world.
Krzysztof Zanussi, who was granted the title of an honorary Zamość resident, played a special part in the latest edition of the festival. The director was the central figure of an event called Afternoon with Master, during which his films were shown. There was also a special exhibition devoted to Zanussi in the newly opened CKF and he left the impression of his soles in the Celebrity Avenue in Zamość.
Film shows are accompanied by recitals and exhibitions.
