Each year movies awarded at the most well-known film festivals in the world such as Cannes, Berlin, Venice, Rotterdam, Sundance and Toronto are being presented at the Festival.

The Festival aims at familiarizing the public with film premieres as well as those pictures that have never been broadly distributed in Poland or have only been screened at film festivals. Filmmakers, industry reps and cinema lovers from Poland and abroad come to the Festival each year. With each edition it has been more and more widely commented on by the local media and Poland-wide as well as abroad and by the film industry media. It also attracts more and more accredited journalists.

Different Sopot Film Festival events are taking place simultaneously in some of the most important cultural venues of the city. Film screenings, meetings with filmmakers and workshops are organized in Multikino, Sopot National Art Gallery, Scena Kameralna Theatre, Na Plazy Theatre and in the Sopot Forest Opera.
