"Tamas and Juli"
1997
Directed by Ildiko Enyedi

A young, socially awkward coal miner and a shy kindergarten teacher slowly overcome their introverted ways and begin to fall in love. Their romance, however, is hindered by the dominating presence of the coal mine, a force that proves especially overpowering on December 31, 1999. A strong commentary on man and the machinery of life. Part of the 2000 Seen by.. series, in which French television commissioned several filmmakers from around the world to make a film using the impending millennium as the subject or background. Hungarian with English subtitles.  63 minutes.
