XIII INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL OF THE ART OF CINEMATOGRAPHY - CAMERIMAGE

November 26 th - December 4 th 2005, Lodz

The 13 th edition of International Festival Camerimage finished on 4 th of December with a solemn Closing Ceremony. Eight-day period, filled with film projections, workshops, seminars, encounters with popular and estimated film creators, was closed for 3000 participants. It was a wonderful week of constructive discussions, artistic impressions and education. In the Camerimage participants and observers point of view this year's Festival edition is one of the best Camerimage ever, which we, organizers, cannot deny.

The success of this edition is based on financial support from our partners: Ministry of Culture, City of Lodz Authorities, The Marshal Office of Lodz Voivodeship and MEDIADESK Programme .
