Madách Imre-Jankovics Marcell: The Tragedy of Man
THE TRAGEDY OF MAN
color Hungarian animated film with English subtitles, 160’, 2011
(The Tragedy of Man - in Hungarian with English subtitles)
Directed by Marcell Jankovics
***Not recommended for children under 12!***
The screenplay for *The Tragedy of Man* was written in 1983. Production began in 1988 and, after many twists and turns, was only recently completed. What makes the film interesting is that Jankovics shot all 15 acts in different styles. We’ve already had a taste of individual acts over the past few years at various festivals and on television, but this is the complete, nearly 160-minute version.

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".
