June 18–28 brings Far Eastern Film Days, a compact binge of the most electric recent Korean and Japanese cinema, from award magnets to cult favorites. Fans of South Korea’s crowd-pleasing auteur Park Chan-wook can feast on multiple titles, with screenings of A titokzatos nő (Decision to Leave), A szobalány (The Handmaiden), and this year’s Nincs más választás (No Other Choice).
Prestige Powerhouses
Oscar-winner Előző életek (Past Lives) anchors the lineup alongside Vezess helyettem (Drive My Car), bringing slow-burn heartbreak and literary muscle to the schedule. These heavy hitters sit next to festival darlings designed for big-screen immersion, not just living-room scrolling.
Quiet Wonders, Big Emotions
The program also shines a light on Tökéletes napok (Perfect Days) and Bolti tolvajok (Shoplifters), films that turn everyday moments into quiet epiphanies. And for pure magic, a handpicked slice of Studio Ghibli animation lands on the big screen—an all-ages portal to wonder that still hits adults right in the feels.
