Miklós Mészöly's short novel Film aims to show the last few hours of an elderly couple's life. The last moments of two people who, in the midst of historical storms, inhumanity and loss of values, remained together in the strange grip of love and dependence. The most moving is the formulation of the fundamental question: can we and can we say goodbye with dignity, how much we are lost and vulnerable when we set off into the unknown.

Directed by András Surányi

Movie
It would be difficult to overestimate the importance of János Bródy and his role in Hungarian-language rock music culture regarding this, but even if we refrain from the superlatives prevalent in the fan circle, we must objectively state that his life work has become an inescapable part of the history of the Great Generation. We recorded special and exciting material, while looking at older and newer, never-before-released concert recordings, and things were discussed that allow a deeper insight into the secrets of the workshop of an epoch-making artist. This is how the portrait film CONFESSIONS about János Bródy was made.
