If you like movies and architecture, the 15th Budapest Architecture Film Festival will be right up your street. This year's edition focuses on the problems of the 150-year-old Hungarian capital. While maintaining its architectural focus in its name, the festival also embraced all the topics that define contemporary architecture today. The films are concerned with issues of urbanism, city politics, ecology, transportation, technology, activism and societal transformation.
The program includes memorable films from the past decade and a half, short films about Budapest, or films shot in other cities or landscapes that address Budapest’s biggest challenges. Ultimately we are looking for the answer to the following question: how do we want to live in the next 15 or 150 years?
