Director
The first directed Hungarian film footage shot with actors debuted in Uránia Hungarian Theatre of Science on 30 April 1901. These short motion pictures were not stand-alone works but illustrations for a lecture on the history of dance. However, all footage featuring the most popular actors of the period has been lost but stills taken during filming have survived – this creative animation short film uses these to present the unknown story of the birth of Hungarian film.
Visual Effects
In this short exploration of sensual audio-visual stimulation, the repeated rituals of an online performer have a transfixing effect on her viewers. What starts as an exploration of tactility, addiction and control soon descends into a nightmarish dance performance where no rules apply.
