At The Linenhall Arts Centre · Linenhall Street, Castlebar, Co. Mayo, F23 AN24
The Linenhall screens Niesamowite przygody skarpetek 3, listed in English as Amazing Adventures of the Lost Socks 3: Ale kosmos, at noon on Wednesday 28 October during the October mid-term. It is a Polish animated feature, 55 minutes long, shown in Polish with English subtitles, and rated suitable for ages five and up.
The film follows the sock characters through a run of separate stories that take in a detective mystery, Wild West duels and a trip into outer space. Across the episodes the socks turn up as sheriffs, detectives, fashion designers and intergalactic travellers, and the humour is pitched to land with adults in the room as well as children. It adapts the bestselling Polish children’s book series by Justyna Bednarek and Daniel de Latour, was produced by Anima-pol, and was directed by Pawel Wendorff and Elzbieta Wasik. The screening is part of the Roola Boola Children’s Arts Festival 2026 at the Linenhall. Tickets are €3 and children must be accompanied by an adult. Subtitles mean confident readers will follow it easily, and the visual comedy carries the rest.
