Women on the beach

The touring festival, which was created and developed exclusively as a result of grassroots initiatives, in 2026 will visit more than forty towns throughout Poland — including Tarnowskie Góry. The partners of the Helsinki Foundation for Human Rights — co-organizers of the touring festival in individual cities — select films from the repertoire of the last edition of the Warsaw IFF WATCH DOCS.

Joselie meets up on the beach every day with a group of her friends. They are all retired, so they can sunbathe topless, drink wine and pick up local hunks at will. The funny and unpretentious documentary by the French director shows the bittersweet vicissitudes of women who can finally feel free from family and social demands.
