Three remarkable films from Hungarian cinema's most renowned filmmakers: Miklós Jancsó, Károly Makk and Márta Mészáros have been brought together in a single set by Second Run for release on UK DVD in June.

My Way Home / Így jöttem (Miklós Jancsó, 1964)
Poetic, evocative and deeply personal, My Way Home is considered Jancsó's first masterpiece. A young Hungarian is captured by Russian soldier, but forms an unlikely friendship with his captor.

Love / Szerelem (Károly Makk, 1971)
Makk's haunting, atmospheric and beautifully performed film, a treatise on fidelity, faith, illusion, love as a family face the death of their beloved grandmother.

Diary for My Children / Napló gyermekeimnek (Márta Mészáros, 1982)
A reflection on Mészáros' own experiences as a young woman returning home to Budapest from the Soviet Union is repulsed to see the very same spectre of Stalinist oppression now rife in her homeland. A passionate yet critical study of personal and political awakening told in ruthlessly unsentimental fashion.
