Not Settlers 2024
The documentary shows the lives of the victims deported to the forced labour camps in Hortobágy between 1950-53, up to the present day. We seek answers to the questions of how the victims coped with what happened to them, how they shared these events with their descendants, and how the tragedy suffered by their parents and grandparents affects their descendants today.

István, a király ("Stephen, the King") is a Hungarian rock opera written by Levente Szörényi (music) and János Bródy (lyrics), based on the life of Saint Stephen of Hungary. The storyline was based on the play Ezredforduló (Turn of the Millennium) by Miklós Boldizsár, who co-wrote the libretto. The opera was first staged in 1983 on an open-air stage in Budapest. This first performance was also made into a 1984 film, directed by Gábor Koltay, and its music released on an album. The musical became a smash hit and is still very popular in Hungary and among Hungarian minorities in neighboring countries.
