Presented during last year’s Forum, The Black Mill is currently in post-production. We will watch a 20 minute presentation of the project. The Black Mill is an adaptation of a novel by Marcin Szczygielski. Both the film and the book are a modern and frightening story for children, inspired by the fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm and Stranger Things on the one hand and a universal story about power, friendship, family and accepting disabilities and poverty on the other. The Black Mill will premiere in November 2020.
