According to the Iranian foundation, Tabesh and Lewandowski met in Warsaw last week, when the Iranian official was there to attend a festival of Iranian films held at Luna Cinema in the Polish capital.

“In order to introduce historic ties and cooperation between two countries, Iranian cinema is ready to produce movies with Poland,” Tabesh said during the meeting.

He also noted “Luckily, Polish people are eager to have cooperation with Iranian cinema.”

On the other side, Lewandowski referred to helping domestic cinema industry and attracting foreign investment according to the Polish government’s plan.
