Hungarian Film Day is expanding into a week-long series of nationwide events. In this program series, initiated and supported by the National Film Institute (NFI) to honor Hungarian cinema on its 125th anniversary, screenings will be accompanied by film history walks and professional events targeting young filmmakers between April 27 and May 3.
The central message of the program series is that Hungarian cinema belongs to everyone, based on a statement sent to MTI by the organizers on Thursday.
As they note, more and more people are joining the initiative every year. Continuing the tradition of previous years, television channels, movie theaters, and streaming services are also participating in the program series to ensure that as many domestic films as possible are shown nationwide during the last week of April.
This month, the Cinema City theater chain is offering discounted tickets for Hungarian films at 2,200 forints every Tuesday, and from April 30 to May 3, all Hungarian films in the lineup will be available at the same price every day.
The announcement highlights that, thanks to a collaboration between Cinema City and Svenk Podcast, special screenings await audiences at three locations, followed by Q&A sessions. In Budapest, director István Szabó and producer Robert Lantos will attend the screening of The Taste of Sunshine, while director Lajos Koltai will be present at the screening of Semmelweis; in Székesfehérvár, actor Simon Szabó will be the guest at a discussion organized around Moszkva tér.
As reported, visitors can also attend pop-up screenings held at unique venues, where iconic Hungarian films come to life in settings that match their mood or theme. For example, We Never Die will be screened at Kincsem Park with the participation of the film’s director, Róbert Koltai, and Golden Legends will be shown at the Császár-Komjádi Swimming Pool with water polo player Gergely Kiss in attendance.
At the end of April, film history tours will also be available at the Uránia National Film Theater, the Pannónia Film Studio building, and the NFI Studios on Róna Street—the “film factory.”
According to the announcement, students and university students will once again be involved in the Hungarian Film Day programs this year. MOME students are working on a poster design course inspired by the first Hungarian film, A táncz, which reflects both on the birth of Hungarian cinema and its contemporary reinterpretation. An exhibition of the completed works will open on April 27. A professional jury will award prizes for the best works, and the exhibition will be a key element of the program series’ opening.
The University of Theatre and Film Arts’ professional day, marking the 125th anniversary of Hungarian cinema, will also pay tribute to the film A táncz. ELTE’s participation is another new highlight of the event series. The ELTE Film Festival, taking place between April 29 and May 2, will be a partner of Hungarian Film Day this year. The program will showcase student films produced in ELTE’s film programs at the Stúdió K Theater, the Kristály Színtér on Margaret Island, and the Corvin Cinema.
They emphasize that this year’s Hungarian Film Day, with its ever-expanding network of partners and diverse programs, is dedicated to ensuring that Hungarian films reach as many people as possible and that more and more people discover Hungarian filmmakers.
The Hungarian Film Day has been held annually on April 30 since 2018, paying tribute to the rich history of Hungarian cinema. On this day in 1901, the first staged Hungarian film recordings, featuring actors, were screened at the Uránia Hungarian Scientific Theater (now the Uránia National Film Theater). These short films were not standalone works, but rather illustrations for an educational presentation on the history of dance. Although the films, which featured the era’s most popular actors, have all been lost, the still photographs taken during filming have survived—these are the earliest records of Hungarian cinema, which will celebrate its 125th anniversary in 2026.
