NARRATIONS, MEMORY, CONTEXTS the conference celebrating the centenary of the Treaty of Trianon Poznan, 8–9 October 2020. The conference will be held online. ABSTRACTS DR HAB . GRZEBORZ BUBAK Jagiellonian University in Cracow, Institute of Linguistics and Translation Studies (Uniwersytet Jagielloński, Instytut Językoznawstwa i Przekładoznawstwa, Kraków ) The Treaty of Trianon and its later consequences in Hungarian fictional film (Traktat z Trianon i jego późniejsze konsekwencje w węgierskim filmie fabularnym ) Historical motifs have marked their presence in Hungarian film almost since the very beginning, as a result of a succession of dramatic events affecting a generation after generation of Hungarians. Filmmakers drew upon the past whenever the opportunity arose. Sometimes it was revisiting the painful experiences of the past or accounting for painful memories. At other times it was a historical narrative never brought before an audience before, for political reasons. Lastly, at times it was the tide of the moment, such as the round anniversary of a historical event. The revolution of 1956, erased by Kádár from the collective memory, the years of Stalinist terror, the sensitive Jewish issue and recently the fates of former prisoners of war returning from the USSR have all found their place in Hungarian film. Is this also the case with topics relating to the 1920 Treaty of Trianon and its traumatizing provisions regarded as one of the most painful dates in Hungarian history? Neither the tragic experience handed down through generations nor the sense of injustice are going away. This text will attempt to answer the question of whether elements relating to Trianon and its consequences for the Hungarian state can be found in Hungarian film productions.
