1989-2019 : THIRTY YEARS AFTER THE FALL OF THE IRON CURTAIN
Thirty years have passed since the Fall of the Iron Curtain. This is a good opportunity to question, through some filmmakers’ point of view, the ways in which profound changes have taken place since 1989 in Hungarian, Polish, Slovak and Czech societies.
The event will offer a series of screenings and debates in the presence of many guests with diverse backgrounds and will take place from October 18th to October 20th 2019 in different venues in Paris. This program is a unique opportunity to discover talented and multi-award-winning artists, as well as the newest filmmaking trends in Central Europe.
With the support of Visegrad International Fund and the Paris City Hall - Label Paris Europe.
