    Warsaw Available by Karolina Bielawska and Julia Ruszkiewicz, produced by TVP2, has been nominated for the Prix Europa (http://www.prix-europa.de) for the Best European Documentary film, which will be awarded at the Prix Europa TV Festival in Berlin.

    Awarded with the Special Jury Prize of the Worldfest Houston and the Grand Prix of the Krakow Documentary Film Festival (www.kff.com.pl), Warsaw Available follows three girls who decide to come to Warsaw - the "big city" - to change their lives. They go on a journey hoping to find a better place to live. Each one of them is a different person but they share the same dream. The film, produced by Eureka Media (www.eurekamedia.info) and TVP2 (www.tvp.pl), is the documentary debut of the two young Polish directors.

    Prix Europa presents over 230 radio and television productions from all around Europe in eight categories, and organizes numerous meetings and conferences of the TV and radio industry professionals. The festival is a major field of pan-European dialogue focused on the future of the industry.
