Join us for a virtual discussion of Sing: Mindenki, an Oscar-winning 24-minute short film set in 1990s post-socialist Budapest, Hungary.
Based on a true story, this Oscar-winning short film follows an award-winning school choir and the new girl in class facing a tough choice: to stand up against a corrupt system, or to fit quietly into it. SING is a childhood musical drama set in 1990s post-socialist Budapest, Hungary.
Zsofi is struggling to fit in at her new school and singing in the school's famous choir is her only consolation, but the choir director may not be the inspirational teacher everyone thinks she is. It will take Zsofi and her new friend Liza to uncover the cruel truth. Winner, Best Live Action Short, Academy Awards 2017
