UK PREMIERE AND Q&A - COVENANT OF BLOOD

The Covenant of Blood: The Last Soldiers of World War II was created by Patrick Ney and Stefan Tompson. The film will be shown in English with Polish subtitles and will be followed by a discussion with Patrick Ney.

This documentary is the first English-language film to explore the story of the anti-communist resistance movements in Poland after the end of the Second World War. It marks a seminal moment in Polish history that remains largely unknown outside the country. During this film you will be transported into the dark, terrifying years that Poland faced after it had ‘won’ the war. The Pr*son cells. The torture. The oppression. This story has never been told before outside of Poland and has received great reviews at showings in Warsaw at the Warsaw Rising Museum and the Institute of National Remembrance. It has already been selected for the prestigious HISTORY Film Festival in Austria in October and has been nominated for 14 more festivals throughout 2026 and 2027. It is not currently available to view outside of private screenings and film festivals, so this is a rare opportunity to see the film and also meet its creator, Patrick Ney.
