For several years Łuczaj had been working as short and feature film programmer at Warsaw Film Festival and the cult ŻUBROFFKA Short Film Festival and acted as guest curator for various international film festivals around the world. Marcin also worked as production manager with a Warsaw-based production company Koi Studio and for the Ad Arte Foundation, where he managed short film distribution in Polish cinemas (World Shorts, Future Shorts) and international promotion of Polish shorts. He graduated in Film & Media Studies from University of Lodz and in Cultural Studies at University of Warsaw.
Jan Naszewski said “Marcin is a great addition to our team. His network and taste are invaluable in the current competitive market. I am sure he will also fit the company culture of New Europe focused on close relationships with filmmakers and tracking new talents.”
New Europe Film Sales is a company behind the international success of films, such as the Icelandic Cannes Un Certain Regard winner Rams, Karlovy Vary, Cottbus and Fantastic Fest prize-winner Zoology, Polish arthouse hits The Last Family (Best Actor award in Locarno’s Main Competition) and United States of Love (Silver Bear, 66. Berlinale) and successful debut features, such as One Week and a Day (55. Cannes Semaine de la Critique – GAN Distribution Prize).
