Szekszard Calling

Hív Szekszárd (Szekszard Calling) is an independent Hungarian short film directed by Vászoly Koppány, starring: Kristóf Keresztes The film presents Szekszárd not only as a geographical backdrop, but also as an active, character-defining force. One notable element of the cast is the appearance of the actual mayor of Szekszárd, Attila Berlinger, who plays a local taxi driver with a vintage vehicle. This adds a layer of metatheatrical authenticity and bridges the gap between fiction and community reality. Artistically, Calling Szekszárd reimagines traditional regional promotion through the lens of independent cinema. By combining guerrilla-style filmmaking with strong local collaboration, the project demonstrates how localized storytelling can elevate modern city marketing into a film.
