Director: Connie FieldDEMOCRACY NOIR provides a sweeping account of how Viktor Orbán used a free and democratic election to install authoritarian rule in Hungary, enjoying widespread approval from Hungarian nationalists as well as global conservatives inclined to his illiberal views. He changed the constitution, took over the courts, dismantled the rule of law, and took over the media. Democracy Noir tells this story through the brave activism of its three subjects, - opposition politician Timea Szabo, journalist Babett Oroszi, and nurse Nikoletta (Niko) Antal– detailing how unchecked power can quickly remove rights that were once taken for granted. It shows the women fighting their country’s unravelling social and cultural landscape.
Run time: 93 minutes
Following the Screening will be a Q&A with director Connie Field, moderated by the director of the Marie Colvin Center for International Reporting, Sarah Baxter.
