COMING SOON……DEMOCRACY NOIR
Democracy Noir is the compelling story of three women, Timea Szabo, one of the very few women serving in the Hungarian Parliament, Nikoletta Antal, a young activist, and Babett Oroszi, a young journalist, confronting the policies and corruption of Hungary’s autocratic Prime Minister Viktor Orban. In the past decade we have seen autocracies rise all over the world—Brazil, Poland, Turkey, Belarus, Serbia, and almost in the United States. Our film reveals an urgent cautionary tale for all democracies: Orban’s relentless work to build an autocratic white Christian state, kept in power through ‘democratic’ elections. Democracy Noir serves as a warning and a ray of hope: it reveals the undemocratic nature of Orban’s regime and the courage of three women, representing many, who will not acquiesce. A co-production of Clarity Films and Realava. Directed by Connie Field and Produced by Sigrid Dyekjaer and Connie Field. 
IN POST-PRODUCTION
The 1960’s was a new age of musical expression, in which the long-sanctified precepts of classical repertory came tumbling down and California native Don Buchla was in the center of it. He grew up with a passion for music and a passion for engineering. When he combined the two loves, he created electronic musical instruments the world had never dreamed of before. |
