Father's Acre, Nagy's graduation film, was made at Eurofilm Studio with János Derzsi and the amateur actor Tamás Ravasz. The intimate story of a father-son relationship was written by Nagy, and the film's poetic cinematography is the work of Tamás Dobos.
Father's Acre premiered at the 40th Hungarian Film Week where it won the Gene Moskowitz foreign film critics' award.
Father's Acre will compete against 47 other films at the European Film Academy's European Film Awards.

The list of candidates will be announced at the Seville Film Festival on November 7.
The European Film Awards will be presented in 15 categories, including best film, director, actor, actress, screenwriter and cinematographer, in Essen on December 12.
