Kémhatás – Testfilm

A DOCUMENTARY? A DANCEFILM? A WEDDING’S STORY? A TOURIST IN BUDAPEST? A KID’S DREAM? YES? A TESTFILM!!

KÉMHATÁS is an artwork to love! It’s not just a film! It’s dancing, it’s singing, it’s a site specific social action, it’s a film about last age videoing. It is an artwork of contradictions! It is an amusing musical with a happy end love story but the same time it is a no-dialog experimental dance film. It is a dream of a child but also a rigorously edited video clip.

There are wildly known actors, dancers, and singers in the film with students and street walkers, even the video-makers themselves appear in the film. The one hour flow is absolutely international but full with allusions to the Hungarian and Budapest culture where every frame is enrooted. Like the title that means Test-Film but as a Hungarian pun it means also Spy-Story. Yes, the cameras are following the action as children lurk the adults.
