- DirectorBenedek FliegaufStarsKatalin ToldiGyöngyi LendvaiLajos SárkányUnknown racist murderers have already attacked four families. Some of them died. Who will be the next on this ordinary day? Inspired by a true story.
- DirectorÁdám CsásziZoltán Gábor TóthStarsKristóf HorváthKrisztián MolnárIstván SzilvásiThe film follows seven days of a young gypsy, with a short excerpt from each day. Through these brief 'life' images, the film gives a dark and fragmented portrait of Kristóf, similar in style to Hungarian fiction documentaries of the 1970s and 1980s. A life at a standstill with no possibility of change is documented in the figure of the protagonist: Kristóf has neither the social background nor the education to turn his fate around.
- DirectorÁdám CsásziStarsÉva KovácsKristóf HorváthTünde MurányiThree people, living on the edge: Imike, Böbe and Irén, a strange little family in the 21st century Hungary. Imike is a gypsy pimp, his girlfriend, the Romanian-Hungarian Böbe and their flatmate Irén, are prostitutes. These three are trying to find their way in the ensuing chaos after the collapse of the Socialist regime, with Imike getting into trouble about owing money to a drug dealer. The film tells the story of the askewed relationship of Imike and Böbe, showing episodes of their life mercilessly realistic and grotesque, full of sex, violence and shady business. However, the film isn't only about social commentary: it tells a story of rage, love, blind instinct and no-way-out situations.
- DirectorBenedek FliegaufStarsEva GreenMatt SmithLesley ManvilleA woman's consuming love forces her to bear the clone of her dead beloved. From his infancy to manhood, she faces the unavoidable complexities of her controversial decision.
- DirectorBenedek FliegaufStarsFelicián KeresztesBarbara ThurzóLajos SzakácsA drug dealer spends his last day alive pedaling around Budapest visiting friends and clients.
- DirectorBenedek FliegaufStarsBarbara BaloghSándor BaloghPéter BalázsThis work on a joint at once of several genres of the modern art - music, cinema, a video art - so him it is possible to show not only in cinema halls, but also at exhibitions. In the movie there is no dialogue, and the created images cause the most unexpected metaphysical experiences. At the same time the author doesn't impose to the viewer of certain meanings.
- DirectorBenedek FliegaufStarsAngéla StefanovicsBálint SótonyiMiklós Székely B.A mother seeks out her estranged father in the aftermath of her mother's death.
- DirectorBenedek FliegaufPéter ForgácsMiklós JancsóAnthology film made as an act of protest against Hungarian government of Viktor Orban.
- DirectorGyörgy PálfiZsófia RuttkayAttila RéthlyStarsIstván SzülekGyöngyvér OrszághCorbisier KimI AM NOT YOUR FRIEND is a film of improvisations - not only from the part of the nine amateur actors, but from the D.O.P, the director and the scriptwriters as well. The story unfolded itself instantly by the reactions and ideas of actors during the 20 days of shooting and developed into what is presented to the audience. But the story perhaps is less important than the world which opens up in front of us, a taste of Budapest in January 2008.

- DirectorÁdám CsásziStarsBalázs CzukorKristóf HorváthBéla GadosA story of one afternoon. The two main characters are Isu, living with his grandmother, and his friend Zoli. They are in their early twenties and make their living by petty crime. The film shows their picking to and passing on of a bigger batch of drugs, but the focus is not on the actual deal since the characters are seen in the dead time that passes between the phases of the transaction. Isu's past, his relationship with his father and his moving away from home, is also portrayed. This film is not about drugs but is rather a portrait in the style of small- scale realism depicting two Budapest little Valentinos of the 21st century.
- DirectorIstván SzabóStarsAndrás BálintIlona BéresJudit HalászJancsi Oláh is in the transitional phase between adolescence and adultness. He is born in 1938, and is now getting his first employment as an electronic engineer. On some TV-screens he happens to see a young lawyer, Éva Halk, who arrests his attention.

They see the older engineers as mediocre, and have grand ideas about developing new inventions together. With changing living conditions the five friends start to grow apart. At a party Jancsi suddenly meets Éva Halk. They fall in love, and find common memories in the engagement in The Pioneer Railway at the age of 12. Both of them also chose to stay in Hungary in '56, when many of their friends fled the country. The sudden death of the gang member Laci in leukemia is a hard blow for them all. The fear of death grabs Éva and Jancsi. They start seeing each other as obstacles to their own development, and drift apart.

At a point where the river is 8 meters deep, one of the boys gets the idea of diving to the bottom, and to bring up a handful of clay as a proof of the feat. The others follow his example. Back on dry land one of the girls suddenly wonders where Gabi is. When they figure out that no one has seen him coming up from the river, they get worried. Gabi's clothes are still on the beach, and they start searching for him along the banks and in the water. Finally they have to call the police, who start dragging the river. The corpse isn't found, and the following days Gabi's friends display different reactions to the loss. Some had unsettled matters with him, which now never can be solved. Some have already started to forget his face. At the third day the body is found. Summer is gone, and the circle of friends disbands. Some go to a bigger city for studies, while others have to stay in the small town and work. Left alone in inconsolable grief is Gabi's grandmother.

- DirectorSzabolcs HajduStarsOrsolya Török-IllyésOana PelleaRazvan VasilescuIn order to regain custody of her daughter, whom she left in the care of her fortune-telling aunt, Mona must tell a social worker her story. The tale she spins---and the movie we watch---is a wild, surreal adventure in which people are able to project and enter each other's dreams, and our heroine is sold into slavery and lands in a swank, debauched Liverpool brothel where the patrons enact their literary/sexual fantasies with Lolita, St. Joan, and Desdemona. Rendered with dazzling tracking shots, striking CGI effects and a pulsing soundtrack, Hungarian director Szabolcs Hajdu's risk-taking fantasia has style to spare. But under the seductive surface lurks the very human story of a woman who uses fantasy to cushion the pain of life.

- DirectorPater SparrowStarsEdit BalázsovitsAttila Tóth'...T?ICK is the depiction of the relationship between man and woman, or if you like, separate but according to their function connected principles. However, there is no philosophy or doctrine behind it, which could make it tangible. Thus, it doesn't operate in a completed system, but in one that can be continued. It tries to be a wake-up call to help everyone get rid of their daytime inhibitions and liberate their personal capacity of understanding...'
