Birth of Hungarian Film – The Dance (1901) 2021 Directed by Enikö Löwensohn , Barnabás Weisz A magyar film születése – A táncz
The first directed Hungarian film footage shot with actors debuted in Uránia Hungarian Theatre of Science on 30 April 1901. These short motion pictures were not stand-alone works but illustrations for a lecture on the history of dance. However, all footage featuring the most popular actors of the period has been lost but stills taken during filming have survived – this creative animation short film uses these to present the unknown story of the birth of Hungarian film.
