Austere, Elegent Budapest
zita kisgergely
Recent times have proven to be a boon for industrious individuals who approach problems creatively. Writers are completing novels, yoga teachers are taking their courses online, and film-makers are making the most of technology that allows them to work alone. To boot: this short video depicting Budapest, empty of tourists and pedestrians. Film-maker Márton Bognár took advantage of these unique circumstances to capture Budapest during a spring snow. In one spectacular shot, you can see Lánc Híd (the Chain Bridge) free of both cars and construction. It’s both eerie and beautiful.
Of all the faces the Budapest can wear: Cold War backdrop; Old World romantic; or Western European sophisticate, one thing this video makes clear is that Budapest still has more character to reveal: the city is spectacularly photogenic under even the most extreme of circumstances. This struggle won’t last forever, but Budapest and Hungary will always be here, and will re-emerge more resplendent than ever.
