1. Introduction: Poles of Attraction -- 2. Polish Entertainers and Entertaining Polishness: Staging Expatriates in Interwar Cinema (1918-1939) -- 3. From Expatriation through Defection to Immigration: Polish Characters in Wartime and Cold War Film (1940-1980) -- 4. Screening (Non-)Solidarity, Now and Before: Polish Immigrants in Late Cold War Film (1980-1989) -- 5. Building Capitalism With(out) a Human Face: Polish Migrants in Post-Communist Film (1990-2004) -- 6. Modernisation through Europeanisation? Polish "Free Movers" in Post-Enlargement Film (2005-2017) -- 7. Conclusion: The Great Emigration(s) revisited.

This study explores the representation of international migration on screen and how it has gained prominence and salience in European filmmaking over the past 100 years. Using Polish migration as a key example due to its long-standing cultural resonance across the continent, this book moves beyond a director-oriented approach and beyond the dominant focus on postcolonial migrant cinemas. It succeeds in being both transnational and longitudinal by including a diverse corpus of more than 150 films from some twenty different countries, of which Roman Polanski's The Tenant, Jean-Luc Godard's Passion and Krzysztof Kieslowski's Trois couleurs: Blanc are the best-known examples. Engaging with contemporary debates on modernisation and Europeanisation, the author proposes the notion of "close Otherness" to delineate the liminal position of fictional characters with a Polish background. Polish Migrants in European Film 1918-2017 takes the reader through a wide range of genres, from interwar musicals to Cold War defection films; from communist-era exile right up to the contemporary moment. It is suitable for scholars interested in European or Slavic studies, as well as anyone who is interested in topics such as identity construction, ethnic representation, East-West cultural exchanges and transnationalism.
