A Friss Hús Budapest Nemzetközi Rövidfilmfesztivál szervezésében március 14-én, még az Oscar-gála előtt a Puskin Moziban látható az idei élőszereplős Oscar-jelölt rövidfilmek válogatása.
A világ legrangosabb filmes díjának várományosai négy különleges történetet mutatnak be, a tiltott szerelemtől a generációkon átívelő barátságig. Ritka alkalom, hogy ezek a friss, nemzetközi sikereket arató alkotások Magyarországon, nagyvásznon legyenek láthatók.

A filmeket eredeti nyelven, angol felirattal vetítjük.

Organised by the Friss Hús Budapest International Short Film Festival, a selection of this year’s live-action Oscar-nominated short films will be screened at Puskin Cinema on March 14, ahead of the Academy Awards ceremony.
The nominees for the world’s most prestigious film prize present four remarkable stories, ranging from forbidden love to friendship that transcends generations. It is a rare opportunity to see these fresh, internationally acclaimed works on the big screen in Hungary.

The films will be screened in their original language with English subtitles.
