Hungarian Film Festival in Wellington

The Embassy of Hungary is organising the first Hungarian Film Festival between 23-27 October at the Roxy Cinema in Wellington. Spectators will be able to immerse themselves in the energy and originality of Hungarian culture through a selection of five films. The Festival will open on 23 October, Hungary's national day, with "Children of Glory" which commemorates the Hungarian Revolution of 1956. Four more films will be screened throughout the week: "The Whiskey Bandit" about a famous Hungarian bank robber; "Mom and other Loonies in the Family" that presents four generations of Hungarian women; "Bet of Revenge" about the most successful thoroughbred racehorse in history; and last but not least "Son of Saul", an Oscar winning Hungarian film about the Auschwitz concentration camp during WWII.
