The Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw will host a month of movie screenings this February, featuring the best of international film, as well as some lesser known gems.

The event will open with a screening of acclaimed British director Steve McQueen’s new film “Shame” which premiered at last year’s Venice International Film Festival. The array of premieres also includes movies from international filmmakers such as Miranda July (“The Future”), Jan ·vankmajer (“Surviving Life”), Wilhelm Sasnal (“It Looks Pretty from a Distance”), Wojciech Smarzowski (“Rose”), and Phil Mulloy (“Goodbye Mister Christie”).

As an added incentive for film buffs, the entrance hall of the museum will feature the original neon sign from Warsaw’s legendary Skarpa cinema, which was torn down in 2008. Entrance to all screenings is free of charge. DI
