Isván Kovács’s graduate film, The Siege was rewarded as the best film at the Young Director Award, organized by the Commercial Film Producers of Europe at Cannes Lion. The short film that tells the story of a woman at the war in Sarajevo has already won the Student Oscar, and now is going to Karlovy Vary for the next competition. We go on keeping fingers crossed!
Again a Hungarian film was premiered at Cannes Classics, this time The Witness in original uncensored version. The 4K restoration, colour grading of the details so far unknown for the public was carried out at the Hungarian Filmlab.
A new sound studio has been opened at the Filmlab where we do sound mixing and restoration of archive films. Our services: preparation, digitization, sound editing, premix, final mix (5.1 and broadcast).
Andy Vajna, Hungarian-American film producer and since 2011 commissioner in charge of developing Hungary's film industry has died at the age of 75 today. Andy, rest in peace!
