Winner of Palme d'Or for Best Short Film in 2002. "After Rain" shows the perfect balance of rhythm and images, which together imply a strong, dramatic story in the background. A breathtaking film experience.

Winner of Palme d'Or for the Best Short Film in 1982. Moto Perpetuo shows an absurd picture of our neverending changing culture and history. With its critical view of life, this film was probably a perfect mirror of a Central-European, Soviet country in 1982.

Winner of Palme d'Or for Best Short Film in 1977. "Fight" shows an unquestionable talent of anatomic drawing skill and animation competency. The way it uses perspectives, rhythm and dramaturgy makes this film a unique experience.

Winner of Palme d'Or for the Best Short Film and Technical Grand Prize in 1965, nominated for Academy Award for Best Short Documentary the film "Overture" clearly was ahead of its time. The scientific documentary shows an amazing view of an egg in a way you have never seen it before! Dont't forget, it was shot back in 1965!

Winner of Palme d'Or for Best Short Film in 1996. "Wind" quickly became one of the true classics of European short film heritage. Even if it gets back to the roots of Hungarian cinematographic style of the 70's, it manages to renew, revise it in its own way. The film is based on a photograph by Lucien Hervé.
