Zoltán Huszárik

Died in 1981

Zoltán Huszárik was born in Domony on 14 May 1931 and lost his father at the age of two. Admitted in 1950 to the film school in Budapest, he was expelled in 1952, his family having been classed among the kulaks, and for seven years worked at various trades before being readmitted in 1959. His short film Elégia, from 1965, is regarded as the starting point of a new visual manner in Hungarian cinema. He made only two feature films and died in Budapest in October 1981, aged fifty.
