The Polish Film Institute runs two complementary educational programmes: the School Film Archive, active for the past three years in over 14,000 schools, and the Academy of Polish Film, aimed at college students and organized in four cities. Both programmes present an innovative approach to teaching, feature a variety of topics on the history of Polish cinema, and offer an opportunity to experience the art of auteur cinema.
In 2011, the Polish Film Institute launched a programme aimed at digitizing cinemas across Poland. The project focuses on financial support for local art-house cinemas that could not afford to purchase digital projectors independently. Cinemas can apply for up to 50% of the total purchase costs. Thanks to the involvement of the Polish Film Institute, 38 cinemas have already been provided with state-of-the-art digital film screening equipment.
