The Film Festival was the initiative of Jean Zay, the Minister of education and Fine Arts and was supposed to be held in September 1939. The underlying purpose was to counter the Venice Film Festival which was heavily influenced by Mussolini’s fascist movement. However, things didn’t go as planned as the Germans took over the Poland and it was in the year 1946 that the first Film Festival was held in September after the WWII came to an end. Since 1952 the festival has been celebrated in May.
