To all cinema lovers out there: a new event series brings crowd-favourite Hungarian movies and popcorn to the streets of Budapest's artsy neighbourhood. If you are in town in August, mark your calendar!
In August, an open-air cinema (B32 Parkmozi) is popping up in an artsy part of town, Bartók Béla út. That means you can enjoy movies amidst the buzz of the city, then head to one of the area's hip bars to review it with your friends. The programme consists of Hungarian films released in the past decade, one of which got nominated for an Oscar.
The organising team of B32 Gallery is making sure that you can enjoy the event without interruption: a part of the street will be temporarily closed down, and wireless headphones will be provided to shut out the tinkling noise of the nearby tram. The films are scheduled to start at 9 pm and will be screened with Hungarian audio and English subtitles. Tickets, which cost less than a concession ticket at a multiplex cinema, ring up to HUF 1,800 and already include popcorn.
