This is a special screening of Jonathan Glazer's critically acclaimed film, with subtitles in both English and Polish.

The Zone of Interest is a Protected content drama film written and directed by Jonathan Glazer, co-produced among the United Kingdom, the United States, and Poland. Loosely based on the Protected content by Martin Amis, the film focuses on the life of Auschwitz commandant Rudolf Höss and his wife Hedwig, who live with their family in a home in the "Zone of Interest" next to the concentration camp. Christian Friedel stars as Rudolf Höss alongside Sandra Hüller as Hedwig Höss.

This film was the first ever non-English language British film to receive an oscar for Best International Feature. It also won the Grand Prix at Cannes and three British Academy Film awards.
