Background
Filmoteka Narodowa - Instytut Audiowizualny (translated to National Film Archive - Audiovisual Institute in English and abbreviated to FINA) is a Warsaw-based film archive owned by the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage. It was founded on April 29, 1955 as Centralne Archiwum Filmowe (or Central Film Archive in English). On June 1, 1970[1], the company was renamed to Filmoteka Polska and then Filmoteka Narodowa in 1987. On March 1, 2017, Filmoteka merged with Narodowym Instytutem Audiowizualnym (National Film Archive in English) where their current name stands.

Visuals: On a black background, a hand opens up, revealing a spark of light on its palm which releases a film strip path curving out of it. Another film strip flies in from the top right to join the one from the palm. among more entering the picture from various directions to circle around the hand. After the film strip leaves the hand's palm, the latter rotates with its back facing the camera to feel the flying strips.
Several seconds later, the hand returns to its initial position, turning down and then upwards to open its palm and absorb the film strips into the latter. The hand closes, faces the right, and, with light inside of the palm, opens two fingers (index and middle finger), releasing the ray of light and mimicking a film projector.
Panning over to the right, a white box with a stylized, curvy film strip with the silhouette of a falcon on the right on top of "FILMOTEKA NARODOWA" is being projected by the light. The latter fades out, leaving the logo in print form on a black background.
Variant: A blue tinted variant exists. Plus, the text is thinner and the logo has a blurry outline to its box.
Technique: Hand-drawn animation by Piotra Dumały.
Audio: A classical piano piece composed by Bernarda Kawki. A reverse cymbal crash plays when the hand mimicks a film projector.
Availability: Seen on modern reprints of classic Polish films from this period such as Bylem Kapo. Like before, most current releases of these films cut this logo out.
