What’s on
A curated lineup of Hungarian animation classics anchors the program, with big-screen showings of Foam Bath (Habfürdő), Cat City (Macskafogó), and Son of the White Mare (Fehérlófia). It’s a rare chance to catch restored favorites and generational staples in communal settings that feel made for them, from neighborhood centers to city cinemas. The emphasis is on open access and shared culture: every event is free, and the mix of venues makes it easy to drop in for a film or settle in for a marathon.
