In Budapest at the end of April 2023, INTERFILM is organising a seminar on the history of Hungarian film and the current situation in Central and Eastern Europe. The focus is on the history of cinema in Hungary since the 1950s, with directors such as Zoltán Fábri, Miklós Jancsó, István Szabó, Márta Meszáros and Ildikó Enyedi, but also films of the last two decades by Nimrod Antal, Bela Tarr and Dénes Nagy. In addition, the seminar will take a look at the current situation in Ukraine and its cinematic treatment as well as the shaking of familiar film cultural parameters by the Russian military aggression.

"Defiant" by director Visa Koiso-Kanttila wins the Prize of the Church Media Foundation in Finland at the International Chidren's and Youth Festival in Oulu 2025.
The Hof Film Festival is now in its 58th year and has become a hallmark of the city, which is why Hof likes to call itself the “Home of Films,” a phrase that is said to have originated with Wim Wenders. In the late 1960s and 1970s, the Munich film scene came to Hof (...). As a nostalgic reminder, this year there was a 35mm screening of Fassbinder's early work “Gods of the Plague”. Peter Paul Huth reports about the festival.
