About event
Béla Hancsovszky, a 19-year-old boy from Gömör, becomes the focal point of a complex narrative when he takes it upon himself to blow up the gendarmerie station in Tornalja.
The year 1945 was difficult for the Hungarian community in Czechoslovakia in many ways. Although the war is over, its imprint is still strong in society: the desire for revenge and ethnic hatred dominate everyday life. Interpretation of the person and history of Béla Hancsovszky still challenges us today. According to the police report, Hancsovszky and two of his companions blew up the gendarmerie building in Tornalja. Miraculously, no one was injured, but the authorities use the case to assert their own interests. The story unfolds through three intertwined perspectives: a historian's account, a young historian's personal journey, and a depiction of Hancsovszky's act of defiance in 1945.
After the screening of the film, there will be a discussion with director Sándor Laczkó, Emese Varga with playwright and protagonist Bence Hégli. The discussion will be moderated by Levente Németh.
Screening 18:00
Discussion 19:30
Entrance fee: 5 euros
