6 Hungarian movie classics with English subtitles at Hungarian university’s film club

The University Film Club of the Budapest University of Technology and Economics, which started last autumn, will continue in the spring, according to organiser Krisztina Orbán, expert at the Department of Sociology and Communication at the Faculty of Economics and Social Sciences.

“I tried to choose films that would be a good starting point for the discussion following the screening, and would also deserve the attention of BME’s audience because of their cinematic values. There are both audience favourites and ones that are less well-known “, Ms Orbán told bme.hu.

The programme:

• 27 February, 17.15: Blue Pelican (Kék pelikán, László Csáki, 2023)
• 3 March, 17.15: Men on the Mountain (Emberek a havason, István Szőts, 1941)
• 27 March, 17.15: Diary for My Children (Napló gyermekeimnek, Márta Mészáros, 1982)
• 10 April, 17.15: Bald Dog (Kopaszkutya, György Szomjas, 1982)
• 8 May, 17.15: The Witness (A tanú, Péter Bacsó, 1969)
• 22 May, 17.15: Sinbad (Szindbád, Zoltán Huszárik, 1971)
