Hungarian films on the programme include The Man from London (A londoni férfi) directed by Béla Tarr; Another Planet (A másik bolygó), a documentary by Ferenc Moldoványi; Luck (Mázli), the debut by director Tamás Keményffy; and the shorts Lifeline (Életvonal) by Tomek Ducki, Ergo by Géza M. Tóth, and Face (Arc) by Ferenc Cakó.
