Songs from People’s Island (2024)
The skeletal remains of factories on People’s Island today serve only as mementos of a time when this landscape was considered a prime industrial area of Budapest and the Danube. The rust belt is dynamically transforming, taking on a new face each year. Change is inevitable, but in whose interest is the island being transformed? And what impact does this transformation have on the people living on the island? 'Songs from People’s Island’ is a visual study and musical panorama with elements of absurdist tragicomedy, exploring the changes occurring on the island from the perspective of a homeless islander.
Director: Danijar Áron Bíró
