Moszkva tér 25th Anniversary | 35mm Screening
Happy birthday, fcker!
On September 19, 2001, Hungarian cinemas premiered Ferenc Török’s film—now a cult classic—which stands as the most important and popular Hungarian movie in the history of the Bem Cinema.
So, let’s go big for this 25th anniversary. Check it out, buddy:
***Exclusive analog 35mm screenings of *Moszkva tér* (Moscow Square) at 16:00, 18:00, and 20:00!
***After the final screening, starting at 21:30, we’re hosting a Q&A with Ferenc Török and Simon Szabó (plus anyone else who’s free)—time to swap some stories.
***Meanwhile, outside, we’ll have "Láfizlájf" (retro disco) playing; there might even be hamburgers—with or without *csalamádé* (mixed vegetable relish)—and don't even get us started on the *Csánti*.
We have to close at 1 AM, but you can easily stroll over to Moszkva Square afterward—who knows, maybe you’ll score a drink.

Spring 1989. The country is on the verge of change; a sense of constant, frantic activity characterizes the situation in almost every sphere. Petya, a high school student about to take his final exams, is celebrating his 18th birthday. He meets his friends at Moscow Square to get addresses for parties, then heads up to the hills—going from one party to the next...
Bem Cinema
In January 2016, the 108-year-old Bem Cinema will reopen its doors to the public, in a new way never seen before in Hungary: as a cinema of cult and classic films (no harm!), or as the educated French say (if you know your English): as a "repertory cinema".
