film and theater placards
On the day of his 100th birthday, his family, colleagues, friends and followers are remembering the renowned and definitive actor of the Hungarian film and theater. A photo exhibition of works eternalizing the Master frames the program series that is built around the never or rarely seen shots of those closest to the artist – Nyika Jancsó, János Kende and Ferenc Grünwalsky. The photos are accompanied by archive placards of Jancsó films and behind-the-scenes films from the archives. On September 27, István Verebes is in talk with actors who worked regularly with Jancsó, while on the 29th, András B. Vágvölgyi moderates a talk of outstanding, contemporary Hungarian filmmakers about the ever-meaningful oeuvre.
