SUMMARY:Film Screening Presented By Susan Suleiman: Father
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday, August 1, at 3pm, come to the West Tisbury Library for a screening of István Szabó’s film, Father. There will be a short discussion to follow with Susan Suleiman, author of the new book István Szabó:Filmmaker of Existential Choices. This event is free and open to the public.\nAbout the film:\n“Ever since the death of his father, young Tako (Dani Erdelyi) has filled the paternal void with a series of fantasies in which his father (Miklos Gabor) is envisioned as a partisan freedom-fighter, a cultured world traveler and a decorated hero. When he reaches manhood, Tako (Andras Balint) struggles to live up to the heroic image he crafted, even as he discovers a world in which valor has little place. This coming-of-age story set against the background of Hungary’s post-World War II history won First Prize at the Moscow international film festival in 1967 and propelled its young director, István Szabó, to worldwide recognition as a leader of the Hungarian New Wave. This classic film of world cinema is a must-see—in Hungarian, with English subtitles.” \nOn August 18, at 3pm, at the MV Film Society, see the film TAKING SIDES followed by a Zoom Q&A with István Szabó and Susan Suleiman. Click here for more info.\n
