RESUMO A proposta deste trabalho foi analisar as questões relativas à identidade conforme representadas no filme “Sunshine – o despertar de um século” (1999) do diretor István Szabó. A Hungria possui uma história complexa, não raro de difícil compreensão para os próprios húngaros. O cinema, com sua linguagem imagética universal, permitiu aos húngaros refletir sobre seu passado e até mesmo transcender a barreira da língua (o idioma húngaro não compartilha sequer as raízes das línguas indo-européias) para penetrar na consciência de outros povos europeus e do ocidente em geral. O filme narra a saga de uma família Judia ao longo de um período de um século e meio e é através de seus personagens protagonistas que observamos a questões da diáspora Judia, do nacionalismo e do anti-semitismo neste país. Como parte da pesquisa, pudemos analisar como a dinâmica da memória cultural foi abordada no filme e a influência dos conceitos elaborados por Pierre Nora . Na representação da história observamos a influência do pensamento de Gramsci e abordamos a função social do filme e o papel dos intelectuais na elaboração do conteúdo ético da sociedade Palavras-chave: Comunicação, cinema, cinema Húngaro, identidade , memória ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to examine the issues related to identities as represented in the film "Sunshine - the awakening of a Century" (1999) from the director István Szabó. Hungary has a complex history, often difficult to understand even for the Hungarians themselves. The film, with its universal imagery language allowed the Hungarians to rethink their past and even transcend the language barrier (the Hungarian language does not share the roots of Indo-European languages) to penetrate the consciousness of other peoples of Europe and the West in general. The film tells the saga of a Jewish family over a period of a century and a half and it is through his main characters that we observed the issues of the Jewish diaspora, the nationalism and the anti-Semitism in this country. As part of the research, we analyze how the dynamics of cultural memory was approached into the filme and the influence of Pierre Nora concepts. It wa also observed the influence of Gramsci in the representation of the history which leads to social function of film and the role of intellectuals in the development of the society´s ethical content .

Programs are open to the public and free of charge. Doors open approximately 30 minutes before each show and seating is on a first-come, first-seated basis. Art Films and Events Balázs Béla Stúdió, 1961–1970 February 9 at 2:00 The Balázs Béla Stúdió, established in Budapest in 1959, quickly became a vital center of avant-garde and documentary filmmaking in Central Europe. A selection of short films from the first decade of the BBS will be presented in conjunction with the retrospective honoring Hungarian director István Szabó. All films in this program are Hungarian with subtitles. Max Linder Ciné-Concert World premiere of score by Gabriel Thibaudeau with Octuor de France March 8 at 3:00 French comic Max Linder (1883-1925) was perhaps the first true "character" to appear in the movies. A debonair ladies' man and bon vivant forever getting into trouble on screen, Linder directed, wrote, and starred in nearly two hundred delightfully amusing shorts before World War I. Not only was he adored by audiences, but Charlie Chaplin called him an inspiration.

  • István Szabó and Márta Mészáros to Be Honored at TIFF 2018 István
    István Szabó and Márta Mészáros To Be Honored at TIFF 2018 István Szabó and Márta Mészáros, two major figures of Hungarian cinema, will be presented lifetime achievement awards at the 17th edition of the Transilvania International Film Festival. The two guests of honor will be joined at TIFF 2018 by an impressive delegation of directors coming to present their most recent works during TIFF’s traditional Hungarian Day. Celebrated in the 3x3 sidebar, filmmaker István Szabó turned 80 in February of this year. He is the first Hungarian recipient of an Oscar for Best Foreign language film for his 1981 Mefisto. In the course of a nearly 60-year career, Szabó made tens of important titles, many of which were awarded in prominent international festivals. Preoccupied with the fate of the individual at the crossroads of history, Szabó made his feature debut in 1965 with Age of Illusions/Álmodozások kora and gained notoriety with his second film, Moscow and Locarno award-winning Father/ Apa, in which a child lives with the illusion that his father died in the war as a hero. The story of a couple forced to live under false identities in Trust / Bizalom (1980), brought him a directing award in Berlin and an Oscar nomination. He received his Oscar one day later for his masterpiece Mefisto. His brilliant take on the Faustian myth, involving a theater actor and director who makes a deal with the Nazi regime, was the first in a trilogy of German co- productions and collaboration with his favorite actor, Klaus Maria Brandauer; it was followed by Colonel Redl (1985) and Hanussen (1988), both of which were also nominated for the Oscars.

Zwischen den beiden so ungleichen Frauen ent- wickelt sich eine eigentümliche, tiefe Nähe, die allerdings eine Grenze kennt: Emerencs eigenes Zuhause. Oscar-Preisträger István Szabó erzählt in ruhigen, sorgfältig komponierten Bildern von der Bezie- hung zweier charismatischer, ganz unterschied- lichen Welten zugehörender Frauen im Ungarn der 60er Jahre. Angelegt wie ein Kammerspiel, spielt HINTER DER TÜR virtuos mit wechselnden Ebenen, Verschiebungen, Brüchen, Szenen von berührender Nähe und Intimität. Helen Mirren (THE QUEEN) als Emerenc und Martina Gedeck (DAS LEBEN DER ANDEREN) als Magda beeindrucken mit ihrer bewegenden und nuancenreichen Darstellung. Das weitere Ensemble versammelt mit Károly Eperjes (Ti- bor), Gábor Koncz (Oberst), Enikö Börcsök (Sutu) und Ági Szirtes (Polett) führende ungarische Film- und Theaterschauspieler. Zu Szabós Team gehören u.a. der Kameramann Elemér Ragályi (REISE DER HOFFNUNG), der Tonmeister Simon Kaye (PLATOON) und die Cutterin Réka Lemhé- nyi (SUNSHINE).

  • The Case of István Szabó
    The Case of István Szabó By Christina Stojanova Fall 2003 Issue of KINEMA TAKING SIDES: THE CASE OF ISTVÁN SZABÓ THERE is a scene halfway through István Szabó’s latest film, Taking Sides: The Case Furtwängler (2001, Germany-France), where the American interrogator Major Steve Arnold confronts the legendary German conductor and music director of the Berlin Philharmonic with the question why he did not leave Germany despite of his disapproval of the Nazi regime. Wilhelm Furtwängler’s answer is humble and simple: because I am not Jewish and because I tried to help from inside. The crucial moral choice, involved in one’s decision to leave one’s country, the choice that could make or break a human being, has been one of the central themes of Szabó’s oeuvre since Lovefilm (1970). A beautiful, nostalgic film about the passionate meeting in Paris of two lovers, separated by immigration for more than a decade after the bloody suppression of the Hungarian anti-Communist uprising in 1956. The same theme resurfaced again forcefully in his Oscar- winning Mephisto (1981), where the famous German actor Hendrik Höfgen (tailored after Gustaf Gründgens, a well-known inter-war German actor and Klaus Mann’s brother-in-law), refuses to leave Germany at the height of Nazism as he, too, believes that there is no life for him without his art, which he can only practice in German and in Germany, where he would be more useful for his persecuted friends ‘from inside’. In Mephisto, emigration is seen as a possible salvation from a disgraceful pact with the Devil, and is interwoven in the powerful metaphor about the role of the artist under totalitarian regime.

    Grzegorz Bubak Istvan Szabó Poszukiwanie tożsamości i bezpieczeństwa Analizując twórczość Istvana Szabó można zauważyć kilka interesują­ cych motywów pojawiających się w jego filmach. Zaobserwowane w dzie­ łach wczesnego okresu jego artystycznej działalności, dojrzewają później, powracają w kolejnych dekadach, tak jakby twórca nie mógł się z nimi roz­ stać, jakby miał wrażenie, że jeszcze nie dokonał ostatecznego rozliczenia, wypowiedź nie była pełna. Z wielką starannością, dociekliwością drąży te zagadnienia, ewidentnie szuka odpowiedzi, ale one nie padają wprost, mo­ żemy je odczytywać jako supozycje poprzez losy, zachowania, kwestie wy­ powiadane przez bohaterów filmów węgierskiego twórcy. Szabó reprezentujący pokolenie ludzi urodzonych tuż przed drugą wojną światową doświadczył w swoim życiu wielu tragicznych zwrotów historii, która okazała się okrutna, nie tylko dla Polaków, ale także dla na­ rodu węgierskiego. Dlatego też nie może dziwić, że w swoich kilkunastu zrealizowanych do tej pory filmach, w przeciągu ponad czterdziestolet­ niej artystycznej kariery, interesował się wpływem wydarzeń historycz­ nych, dramatycznych przełomów na losy jednostki, jej postrzeganie świata i próby podejmowane, aby przetrwać w konfrontacji z wielką siłą Historii. Interesujące w jego obserwacjach jest to, że nie ograniczył się wyłącz­ nie do wydarzeń, których sam był świadkiem na Węgrzech (a i tak było ich sporo), czyli drugiej wojny światowej i okupacji hitlerowskiej, w 1944 roku zamienionej na sowiecką, z tą różnicą, że trwała ona zdecydowanie dłużej, bo do końca lat osiemdziesiątych. Doświadczył na własnej skórze bodajże najtragiczniejszych wydarzeń, być może z całej ponadtysiącletniej historii jego kraju, które rozegrały w październiku 1956 roku w Budapeszcie, kiedy naród węgierski podjął dramatyczną próbę odzyskania wolności. Upadek komunizmu nie stał się bynajmniej dla Szabó powodem do zaniechania hi­ storycznych dociekań, a wręcz przeciwnie, jako wnikliwy obserwator śle­ dził zjawiska błyskawicznie zachodzących zmian społecznych i mentalnych na Węgrzech.
