Film day at KINOMUZEUM will showcase Warsaw and its surroundings as a shared food landscape. The second segment will combine the films Co rośnie w mieście? and Jadalne Miasto Warszawa with a discussion on contemporary urban agriculture. We will explore how to reclaim local expertise, protect farmland, and build lasting relationships between the city and its food-producing hinterland, thereby strengthening Warsaw’s food sovereignty.
Co rośnie w mieście is a film that
tells the story of Poland’s first urban farm, which brings together the city, a university, a social integration center, preschools, NGOs, and local farmers in a joint effort.
A hundred years ago, most people lived in the countryside. Today, 60% of us live in cities, and agricultural skills have declined significantly.
This is a place where a new way of thinking about food is emerging—as a common good and an element of security. In the face of climate and geopolitical crises, the film shows that food is not just a matter of taste, but also of survival. It is a story of cooperation, responsibility, and the question: what is our role in the system that feeds us?
After the screenings, we invite you to a discussion titled Urban Agriculture and Food Sovereignty featuring invited guests.
Jadalne Miasto Warszawa is a film that gives a voice to five initiatives that could set a new direction for the city’s food policy. This story shows that small-scale projects can make a big difference.
A global system based on industrial agriculture and livestock farming, crop monocultures, and soil exploitation deprives people of food sovereignty—that is, the human right to healthy food produced locally, in a sustainable and ecological manner, and in harmony with the planet’s natural rhythms.
Community-supported agriculture, food cooperatives, family garden plots, community gardens, and restaurants that use local, seasonal, and organic products are becoming an important part of the edible city. Strengthening these initiatives also means supporting real environmental and social change. Representatives of these initiatives explain how they work and the values and ideas behind them.
Imagine a city where fruits and vegetables grow on urban farms, in community gardens, or are cultivated on rooftops and in home gardens. Imagine that food doesn’t have to travel hundreds or thousands of kilometers, but instead you have access to fresh produce from local, organic farms. Imagine that Warsaw, the edible city of the future, is transforming into a healthier, more livable, and more resilient place.
What future do you choose?
