S\u00e1ndor wants to be a free filmmaker, but the Eastern European dictatorship he lives under has other plans for him. The state dictates his professional work, his social life and even invades his bedroom. <\/p>\n

How can a young person from an impoverished Roma village become successful? How far can an artist go before the authorities silence them? What would you do if the state interfered in your work and private life? How can a filmmaker become truly successful in an age of socialism with its watchful eyes? <\/p>\n

Caution! The System Destroyers<\/em> lecture contributes in some way to expanding our historical knowledge. Don’t worry, this story won’t be in the textbooks either. At the same time, it is necessary for us to face our common past, present, and move forward.<\/p>\n

The people and events depicted in the show are fictional, but a significant portion of the stories presented are true. The show was inspired by real people whose struggles deserve respect. <\/p>\n
