Béla Tarr: Not education – liberation! Student panel discussion
Béla Tarr: Not education – liberation! Student panel discussion
Schedule
After The Turin Horse was presented and Béla Tarr declared his oeuvre complete in 2011, many thought this marked the master’s retirement. In reality, it was the beginning of a new stage of his life, dedicated to film education.
In 2012, Béla Tarr moved to Sarajevo, where he founded a unique and unorthodox international film school, film.factory, which existed until 2017. During this period — and in the years that followed — Tarr held numerous workshops around the world, forming an international community of his students.
One of his last and proudest projects was his collaboration with the Freeszfe movement in Budapest (2020–2021), from which deep connections emerged with a new generation of Hungarian film professionals.
More than 40 filmmakers from Europe, Asia, and the Americas will gather in Budapest to salute their master and friend. They come together to share their memories and reflect on the key ideas of Béla Tarr’s teaching, which they continue to see as guidelines in their own practice.
Moderated by Amila Ramović, Béla Tarr’s wife and collaborator.
The event is open to the public and gonna be held in English.
Turbina Bistro
Our bistro was born with the belief that plant-based cuisine can be super exciting. Working in partnership with the Domovoj Project team, the Bistro tries to take inspiration from different technologies and climates of the world to incorporate them into the flavours, textures and colours of our dishes. Furthermore, seasonal ingredients and local suppliers are carefully selected to ensure a more conscious and sustainable cuisine. We use a number of labour- and attention-intensive processes that are rarely used in a restaurant setting: alongside our homemade ferments, we add our own intense, crispy lyophilized specialties to enhance the flavour of our dishes. We work with a diverse range of drinks in-house, with plenty of specialities to choose from, in addition to our seasonal offerings, from African gins to Indian rums and Japanese whiskies. You'll be welcomed in the bright, rustic spaces of our cultural venue, whether you're discovering the possibilities of Bistro with a small or large crew.
