Trilogy Crisis
The support and nurture of the talent of young artists gathered around me was an important aspect of the Trilogy Crisis Krétakör’s next large scale venture. The project dealt with the traps faced by the younger generations, and examined how much they really have to fight against their parents, teachers and non-accepting environment. Elements of the trilogy: jp.co.de - an experimental feature film directed by Péter Fancsikai, produced by and presented at the Prague Quadriennale, The Ungrateful Bastards - a chamber opera production at the Summer Festival of the Bayerische Staatsoper in Munich, directed by Márton Gulyás, libretto by Gábor Schein, music by Marcell Dargay. The Priestess - a theatrical performance that I made with the help of Lilla Sárosdi, Sándor Terhes involving students selected by the Osonó Theater Workshop in Sfântu Gheorghe. Protagonists in the performance were Hungarian and of Roma origin secondary school students. The Hungarian premiere was hosted by Trafó - House of Contemporary Arts in Budapest. The Priestess was later invited to Vienna, to Brussels and to Tokyo. During the guest performance period Transylvanian students could also take part in joint workshops with students of a different nationality.
On Free Press Road
I gave a speech on the 15th of March, on Szabadsajtó (Free Press) Road, at the first Milla (One Million Voices for a Free Press) protest in front of 30 thousand people. While Viktor Orban announced his “war” against Brussels at the Museum Garden, I spoke about the importance of cooperation just a few blocks away. I pointed out, in particular, that democracy in its civilised form means a system in which the winner of the elections cannot take all. It's a need to find a way to each other, especially when professional and human rights-related issues are at sake. I was naive, like many others. Then I did not suspect that this system had no intention to cooperate with those who were critical. They only want to speak to those who are willing to surrender.
Organisers of the 'Alternative President of the Hungarian Republic'-campaign asked me to take part in their initiative. I explained what I would do if I were president in an online video.
