Apolonia, Apolonia

Directed by Lea Glob, Apolonia, Apolonia is one of the most remarkable documentary films of recent years, offering a fresh perspective on the realities behind the romantic image of the bohemian artistic life.

Spanning 13 years, the film follows the life of charismatic French-Polish artist Apolonia, documenting her personal and artistic journey as she navigates art school, commercial pressures, and the challenges of being a woman in a male-dominated art world.

The film won the IDFA Award for Best Film, was named Best Danish Documentary of 2024, and was nominated for the European Film Awards.
