In the first thirty years of film history, when films were still running in cinemas without sound, about 600 feature films were made in Hungary, including the world-famous works of Sándor Korda and Mihály Kertész, but only a couple of these have survived. The survivors of the internationally acclaimed, flourishing Hungarian silent film industry are sought and collected by the National Film Institute's archive, whose ever-growing collection has inspired prominent representatives of Hungarian contemporary music. This evening, the Moment's Notice Trio's improvised musical discourses will further interpret the output of the first golden age of Hungarian filmmaking, in the form of feature film excerpts and fragments. This time, the drama unfolds through the dialogue between image and music.
