Re-Verzió 2019

Encore screenings of popular films from Verzió 15
February 7 – March 21

Knowing that more and more of you are watching documentaries in the cinema makes us very proud; of the 105 screenings at Verzió 15, nearly half were sold out! This really is one of the most promising imprints of 2018.

Thanks to your growing interest, we are even more enthusiastic about our annual encore screening series, Re-Verzió, which has been typically held in the last cold weeks of winter – supplying the perfect atmosphere for watching movies and gathering in warm places.

This year our venue is the Blinken OSA Archive, home to Verzió’s 8000+ documentary film library, as well as Radio Free Europe materials and many other intriguing fonds. 
Address: 1051 Budapest, Arany János u. 32.
