Summary/Abstract: The subject of the article is the role of films in intercultural dialogue. Filmmakers follow the causes of intra-cultural tensions, talk about the impossibility of assimilation, nostalgia for their country, or family relations. Contemporary cinema takes part in the dialogue of cultures, critically analyses complex intercultural relations and provides an important voice in the discussion of values resulting from diversity. By talking about intercultural relations, filmmakers contribute to strengthening the dialogue of cultures. Dialogue with other cultures also requires educational measures, and one of the educational tools to respect cultural diversity is film.
