Step into a cinematic time machine!

You're invited to an engaging, interactive workshop by the National Film Institute of Hungary — perfect for kids, teens, and anyone curious about the world.

You'll have the chance to explore enchanting 19th-century optical devices — where cinema first started, long before the first films were made. Then, you'll create your own animated short and watch it projected on a genuine vintage projector that’s nearly 100 years old!

Ideal for ages 6 to 125.

The workshop will be conducted in English with consecutive interpretation into Ukrainian.
