Polish director defiant as pre-election attacks on migrant film reach fever pitch

By Jo Harper

WARSAW (AA) - Polish director Agnieszka Holland's new film "The Green Border" is an emotionally affecting drama and could serve as a form of collective therapy for some Poles dealing with historical trauma.

The film, which details the experiences of non-European migrants on the Polish-Belarusian border, has become a divisive issue ahead of Sunday’s parliamentary elections. It explores the crisis from different angles, but the government has labeled it propaganda.

Despite this, some believe the film could benefit the ruling party's security-focused campaign. Holland argues the film was necessary to challenge the government's narrative and promote skepticism.
