EVENINGS OF CINEMA | ONE FULL DAY
15 May 2024. 7:00 pm
Budapest Music Center - Library
1093 Budapest, Mátyás utca 8.
In our series "Evenings of Cinema" we screen mostly Hungarian films, whose music and its creators are particularly dear and important to us. Both feature films and documentaries are on offer, from the dawn of cinema as well as from the recent past. And to make the experience even more complete, we will also invite the composers of the selected films (or their close colleagues and friends) to a conversation. Our host is film and music critic László Kolozsi, who is also a novelist and screenwriter, the latter of which he also teaches at MOME.
At our May event we will screen the film One Full Day, premiered in 1988. Our guest will be the director Ferenc Grunwalsky and the composer of the film László Dés.
ONE FULL DAY
(Egy teljes nap)
Hungarian drama film, 1988, 86 min. - In Hungarian
director, script writer, cinematographer: Feren Grunwalsky
editor: Klára Majoros
music by László Dés
Featuring: Károly Nemcsák, Erika Fék, Sándor Gáspár, Péter Andorai
Józsi drives the taxi on the streets all day. He often calls Éva, who is at home all day and has nothing to do but to be beautiful and wait for Józsi. On this day, Gáspár repeatedly calls Józsi on the radio-telephone, reminding him that the deadline for the loan has passed. Józsi owes Gáspár the sixty thousand he started the taxi business with. He tries in vain to get the money, but there is no way he can pay back the loan.
One Full Day is a film of hopelessness and malaise, capturing the oppressive atmosphere of the Kádár regime in its final days.
The screening will be introduced by film- and music critic László Kolozsi (in Hungarian).
Guests: Ferenc Grunwalsky, director and László Dér, composer
