Genezis (2018) Directed by Árpád Bogdán

Presented by the UC Center for Film and Media Studies and part of the 2019 UC European Film Festival

A story about fate, Genezis unites a Roma youth, a young female lawyer, and a teenage girl who become inextricably linked after a series of racist murders. Their trajectories intertwine as the boy’s childhood ends and dark truths come to light upon further investigation of the case. Life, solidarity, and responsibility guide the choices of the diverse protagonists whose lives are forever changed following this horrendous crime. Each path leads to a new beginning in Árpád Bogdán’s film.  Introduced by Sunnie Rucker-Chang from the University of Cincinnati. (In Hungarian with English subtitles.) (62 min)
