Behind the Column
2017, Hungarian. Directed by Csaba Vékes.
A humorous career story in which an overlooked actor is unexpectedly asked to go from being the "eternal extra" to becoming the theatre's leading director. From there, he begins to fight not only for his own dreams, but for the company as a whole. Set in today's theatre world, this surreal satire reveals what the protagonist can do with a brand new assignment that is fraught with pitfalls, and what his colleagues think of him.
