Oscars 2024 – nominations. Poles without success. Who has the most chance of winning?

Two Polish co-productions had a chance to be nominated for an Oscar in the best feature-length documentary category. The first one is “Apolonia, Apolonia”, the second one is “From where to where”. However, it didn’t work out here. The creators of “Chłopy” were counting on the short list of candidates for the best animated film. There are no nominations here either.

When it comes to the best film category, the Academy decided to recognize ten titles. They included “Oppenheimer” and “Barbie” – films well known to Polish viewers, but also productions that are yet to appear on our screens, such as “Winter Solstice” or “Business Zone”.
