Munk Studio – a Warsaw-based production studio operating within the structures of the Polish Filmmakers Association since 2008.
Its original formula focuses on producing solely the first films of young directors – short features, documentaries, and animations – as well as full-length feature and documentary debuts.
The aim of the Studio is to help film directors debut in a professional environment, without compromising their creative freedom. This also applies to young cinematographers, editors, actors, and production managers.

Over the past 16 years, Munk Studio produced over 300 short and feature films. Many of them premiered in renowned competitions and received awards at the most important film events – at international film festivals in Venice, Cannes, and Berlin, as well as at Sundance, SXSW, and IDFA.
Each year, at least two full-length feature debuts, eight short feature films, five short documentaries and three animations are produced.
Munk Studio is an important player at the Polish film market. The debuts produced by the Studio regularly receive nationwide theatrical distribution, and are later available at key streaming platforms. They also receive stellar reviews and win the most important national awards at Polish Film Festival in Gdynia, and Krakow Film Festival, as well as the Polish Film Awards.
Munk Studio co-produces films with leading television broadcasters – TVN Warner Bros. Discovery, CANAL+ Polska, and Telewizja Polska.
