CORVIN VARIATION

In the framework  of "Fantazia Festival" The Landmark will host the screening of the Hungarian movie "Corvin Variation"

The Corvin Project initiated in 2003 was the largest and most awarded Central European city development project. It envisioned the complete transformation of cca. 22 acres territory in the 8th district of Budapest, which implied the demolition of all buildings in the given area. Both the local government and the investor wanted to get rid of the “slums” by relocating more than one thousand families, mostly Roma, who could not afford buying property in the old-new area. The protagonists of the film are local residents who have been relocated in the course of the project – and who recall with certain nostalgia and criticism the life in the old neighborhood and community. They no longer see each other – only in the reconstructed space created by the filmmaker.
