Hungarian documentaries in recent years have explored common human themes, such as family, identity, or the dynamics of personal relationships, in intriguing and innovative ways and with an exceptionally sensitive and sophisticated vision. The Verzió Film Festival considers it its mission to feature Hungarian works, introducing the diversity and creativity typical of Hungarian filmmaking to local audiences.

The four exciting films in the Hungarian Competition this year are remarkably different in their styles and subjects. Don't worry Sari! is an incredibly personal portrait combining family archives and current footage, while My Father's Daughter raises questions of family responsibility and memory, as it pursues a disappeared woman. Come on Tete! is the inspiring story of a young Paralympic champion and mother about courage, resilience, and fighting stereotypes. Providing a glimpse into the complex reality of the life and research of Gyula Dékány, a renowned scientist of Hungarian origin, My Chemical Information System also poses philosophical questions about man’s place in the world. Different in their approach, the films in the Hungarian Competition together outline the unique face of contemporary Hungarian documentary filmmaking.
