Béla Tarr’s art has always held a special place in cinematic circles. From the very beginning, Sátántangó (Satan’s Tango) was screened regularly, and in 2019, the restored version of his legendary classic had its premiere there. Retrospective programs often showcase the master’s films, keeping his unique vision alive for both seasoned fans and newcomers.
Rare Screenings and Celebrated Classics
The renowned director is turning seventy on July 21. To honor his birthday, a special event will take place between July 18 and 21, putting Tarr’s body of work back on the big screen. Audiences will not only get to experience his most well-known films—such as Sátántangó (Satan’s Tango), Werckmeister harmóniák (Werckmeister Harmonies), and A torinói ló (The Turin Horse)—but some rarely seen gems will also be shown. Films such as Őszi almanach (Autumn Almanac) and A londoni férfi (The Man from London) will be available for those eager for more of Tarr’s mysterious, immersive cinema.
