Summary/Abstract: This article discusses several perspectives on a possible, further relation between anthropology and film in Poland while taking into account some proposals from Polish, British and American researchers. As anthropology deals with the present culture and society as well as with all aspects of society’s life to an increasing extent, a part of it will also need to engage with film and film culture, which, as a powerful medium, could no longer be ignored. But in order to deal with film, anthropology needs to gain a deeper insight into film studies to be able to adopt a holistic approach and create space for interesting analysis. Thus, the authoress pays attention to both past and new, promising perspectives, which could strengthen and diversify the alliance between these two disciplines (anthropology and film studies) in an interdisciplinary (or multidisciplinary) discourse on film in Poland.
