By FNE Staff

    WARSAW: Heading into its 11th edition, the Wroclav film festival Era New Horizons is shortening its name to New Horizons to reflect the name change of its major sponsor.

    The festival takes place 21-31 July 2012, with 230 feature films and a total of 430 films representing 50 countries screening to an anticipated 120,000 visitors.

    Apart from the competition sections, the highlights of this year's edition will be a presentation of Norwegian cinema and cult films, as well as retrospectives of Terry Gilliam, Bruno Dumont, Andrzej Munk and Mariusz Wilczyński.

    The sponsor, formerly the Era mobile phone company, is now part of the T-Mobile brand. The festival's new website is www. nowehoryzonty.pl.
