Poland-Backed Lift Lady Makes North American Premiere at DC/DOX
In partnership with the Embassy of Poland, Polish filmmaker Marcin Modzelewski’s Lift Lady had its North American premiere at the DC/DOX Film Festival, along with four other short films in a collection entitled: “Or Forever Hold Your Peace.”
The tradition of embassies opening their doors to their neighbors dates back at least to the 1950s, when diplomatic teas were held as charity fundraisers, and as a measure of goodwill.
