Polish movie in Cineworld PDF Drukuj Email

27th January till 2nd February 2012 in Cineworld (Union Square) you can see "Polish roulette" ("Sztos 2") - a modern Polish comedy.

All details can be found on Cineworld website.

 

Movie plot:

A pair of lovable Polish swindlers embark on a madcap adventure in this lively, colourful comedy.

 

It's 1981, and Poland is still in the grip of communism. Not that this interferes with the entrepreneurial spirit of seasoned con-artist Sonny (Cezary Pazura) and his hunky good-for-nothing sidekick Janek (Borys Szyc). In the scenic ski resort of Zakopane, Sonny manages to bluff top secret service agent Krolik (Boguslaw Linda) during a vodka-fuelled poker game. To celebrate, the duo decide to pick up some lovely ladies in a nightclub. But their new companions are not what they seem and our intrepid heroes find themselves embroiled in a plot to transport a Solidarity leader to Warsaw. Along the way, they encounter corrupt cops, dodgy officials and their old friend Krolik...A riotous follow-up to 1997's 'Sztos', now one of Poland's most popular comedies, this handsomely photographed period romp has much satirical fun at the expense of the country's totalitarian past.

The Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity Foundation PDF Drukuj Email

What does the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity Foundation do?

 

What do we do? The Foundation’s aim

The aim of our work is to save the lives of sick people and especially sick children as well as to improve their medical condition. In addition, The Foundation’s active involvement in health care enables us to support health promotion and propagate medical prevention.

We are furthering our aims by organizing the Grand Finale fundraising events, buying medical equipment for hospitals all over Poland and by carrying out five nation-wide medical programs and an educational one.

 

The WOŚP Foundation is usually associated with the fundraising event organized in January, the so-called Grand Finale . Regardless of snow under their feet and frosty air in their lungs, thousands of volunteers and millions of Poles go out to the streets to help us achieve our aim. Every year, the Grand Finale has a different theme and the Foundation raises money for a different cause. Among our previous themes there were for instance:

  • Children’s heart surgery
  • Saving children victims of accidents
  • Saving the lives of infants and young children
  • Saving children with kidney diseases
  • Saving children with inborn defects
  • Progressive methods of diagnostics and treatment in neonatology and pediatrics

 

We are also running five nation-wide medical programs.

We teach first aid in elementary schools:
CPR for Schools, our educational program.

We organize Europe’s biggest open-air music festival, the Przystanek Woodstock Festival.

PAA at RAF Leuchars Airshow 2010 PDF Drukuj Email
On Saturday 11 September during the annual RAF Leuchars Airshow Polish Association Aberdeen organized an exhibition commemorating Polish combat pilots who fought in the Battle of Britain 70 years ago. The main part of the exhibition waas a set of 24 charts describing the history of Polish Air Force in Britain during the WWII. In addition to that we were handing out fliers describing Polsh pilots' achievements and their fate after the war. Each of the visitors was also given a copy of "Wings" - a reprint of Polish Air Force newspaper from 1940.
The exhibition was a great success. According to our estimates we were visited by more than one thousand people.
The only thing to regret was the fact that we were the only Polish accent during this event. Polish Air Force chose not to participate so we didn't see airplanes with white and red checkerboards on Scottish sky.

Polish Library - now open! PDF Drukuj Email
On Saturday 1st May, Polish Library in Aberdeen had a big opening with guests from Aberdeen City Council and University of Aberdeen, PAA memebers and friends.

It's hard to believe that in such a short time, we have come from an idea to a real library. It wouldn't be possible without the financial help from Big Lottery Fund Scotland (financial support of £3.900) and books donated by National Library in Warsaw (over 100 books). We have started cooperation with polish bookstores in London and Glasgow - they will send us a few new books every month for free.
But the beginning was here, in Aberdeen. Polish community has donated over 200 books!

The library could became reality because of hard work of PAA members - thank you all so much!

Polish Library now open
