Film Gives Us a Chance to Debate What Kind of World We Want to Live In

Abstract

The following essay is part of the first series of articles in the Filmszem section.
These texts were written in response to a call we sent out to several figures of the contemporary Hungarian leftist scene who are engaged with film and/or culture.
Among those invited were teachers and students, artists and researchers, public figures and film professionals — as well as people who, in our view, do not particularly like or even feel somewhat averse to films.
