Unveiling EnergaCamerimage Film Fest's Star-Studded Showdown
- Nov 3, 2025
Lights, camera, action! It's time for the 33rd EnergaCamerimage Film Festival, where the crème de la crème of the film world come together in a cinematic celebration. Set to roll from Nov. 15 to Nov. 22 in the scenic city of Toruń, Poland, this year's festival is all about the race for the glorious Golden Frog – a high accolade for film luminaries in cinematography.
Say hello to a breathtaking lineup that includes Ryan Coogler's "Sinners," (anyone else excited to see Michael B. Jordan on screen?), Joseph Kosinski's Brad Pitt and Damson Idris starrer "F1", and James Mangold's “A Complete Unknown” promising a wonderful performance by Timothée Chalamet and Elle Fanning. And hold your horses, the festival is also prepping a grand curtain raise for some new gems including Chloé Zhao’s “Hamnet,” Kathryn Bigelow’s heart-pounding “A House of Dynamite,” and a historical spectacle presented by James Vanderbilt’s “Nuremberg.”
The EnergaCamerimage Film Festival is not just about the glitz and glam, though. It's here to provide a platform for budding filmmakers to rub shoulders with industry hotshots. Expect seminars and workshops, gripping discussions helmed by celebrated cinematographers, directors and more.
