Monika Kotecka
Cinematographer, director, and photographer. Graduate of Photography at the European Photography Academy in Warsaw and of Cinematography at the Lodz Film School. Her films have been presented at such festivals as Cannes, Berlinale, Sundance, BFI London, Visions du Réel, and IDFA. She has worked with various types of video art, from music videos and commercials to feature films, both in Polish and international projects. Over the years, she has developed her own style of visual storytelling, particularly in documentary, focusing on intimate observation of the subject—a prominent feature of her visual language. Her short film Volte, awarded at Hot Docs 2017, nominated for the Silver Eye Award at the East Silver Market, and screened at over 50 festivals around the world, is currently part of the Op-Docs collection on The New York Times platform and was the first Polish documentary to be nominated for the American Cinema Eye Honors Award.
