English Summary:

The aftermath of the 100th Anniversary of WW I (1914 -1918) and the severe impact on the nation of Hungary is explored in this film. This bi-lingual (Hungarian and English) DVD includes insights from professors, historians, intellectuals, and poets in review of the various national interests leading to the Treaty of Trianon, signed at the Grand Palace in Versailles, France on June 4, 1920.

Also, bonus part of the DVD – ‘The Hungarian Spark in America’; a previously released video of the many accomplishments of those of Hungarian descent in the field of art, music, theater, sports, science, medicine, etc.

The Treaty of Trianon (FrenchTraité de TrianonHungarianTrianoni békeszerződés) was the peace agreement of 1920 that formally ended World War I between most of the Allies of World War I[1] and the Kingdom of Hungary, the latter being one of the successor states to Austria-Hungary.[2][3][4][5] The treaty regulated the status of an independent Hungarian state and defined its borders. It left Hungary as a landlocked state that covered 93,073 square kilometres (35,936 sq mi), only 28% of the 325,411 square kilometres (125,642 sq mi) that had constituted the pre-war Kingdom of Hungary (the Hungarian half of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy). Its population was 7.6 million, only 36% of the pre-war kingdom's population of 20.9 million. The areas that were allocated to neighbouring countries in total (and each of them separately) had a majority of non-Hungarians but 31% of Hungarians (3.3 million) were left outside of post-Trianon Hungary. Five of the pre-war kingdom's ten largest cities were drawn into other countries. The treaty limited Hungary's army to 35,000 officers and men, and the Austro-Hungarian Navy ceased to exist.

 

 

Hungarian Summary:

A film legnagyobb nemzeti tragédiánk történelmi körülményeit boncolgatja. Az alkotás megrázó erővel és szokatlan őszinteséggel teszi fel a kérdéseket és szenvedélyesen hangsúlyozza, hogy a ma is tartó trianoni folyamatról minden körülmények között beszélni, emlékezni és emlékeztetni kell.

A filmben megszólal Csurka István, Duray Miklós, Fejtő Ferenc, Glatz Ferenc, Nemeskürty István, Pozsgay Imre, Raffay Ernő, Szervátiusz Tibor és Tőkés László.

Az amerikai székhelyű (Naples-FL), The American Foundation For Hungarian Youth and Culture, Inc. kezdeményezésére, és áldozatos munkájuk eredményeképp, a film rövidített változatát angol nyelven mostantól az amerikai közönség is megismerheti.

Sohase feledjük, ami történt, de azon is gondolkozzunk, milyen lehetőségeink vannak, hogy érdekeinket érvényesítsük, összefogjuk a világban szétszóródott magyarságot, és korszerű válaszokat adjunk a trianoni trauma kezelésének aktuális kérdéseire.
(Koltay Gábor)
