City Map
Directed by István SzabóThis region for an airman is just a map', however, whosoever looks closer will discover a thousand secrets of a thousand lives on each Budapest corner or balcony. Memories of peacetime afternoons, family photos, love letters, then bombed houses, tanks driving down deserted streets and decrepit buildings awaiting demolition all flash up for a moment in this lyrical etude by István Szabó, not the first work in his series of filmmaking confessions for Budapest. The story of a city that preserves its past in its buildings and its inhabitants won the grand prix at the International Short Film Festival Oberhausen in 1977.
