THE PASSING OF TIME

Based on the works of György Bodosi

Landscapes by a village writer

Csaba Horváth and Nóra Földeáki spent more than a year researching the spiritual legacy of Dr. Tivadar Józsa, known as György Bodosi, in Pécsely, a village in the Balaton Highlands. The polyhistor, who served as a general practitioner in the village and neighbouring settlements for many decades, is not well known either in his own community or in wider literary circles, although his work was supported by Gyula Illyés and Sándor Weöres. He devoted his life to his main vocation, and while travelling around the villages of the region, he observed everything. The character, the fate, the way of life and the problems of the villagers, natural phenomena, animals, plants, the changing times and the teachings of the universe.

The persistence of time is an imprint of this. Images of life, stories, characters from the life of a village, poetry and physicality with the soul-stirring music of Mihály Dresch, from which a familiar world with its own laws is assembled. György Bodosi's oeuvre draws from the local and moves towards the universal. That is why it is worth lifting him out of the mists of obscurity and making him public.
