The world famous actress was photographed wearing a T-shirt labeled “Free SZFE”.

There is growing resistance from students and professors to the erosion of the autonomy of the University of Theater and Film Arts (SZFE) due to the government’s decision to continue the university as a foundation under Attila Vidnyánszky. More and more world-famous artists are joining the solidarity movement around SZFE, but the Vidnyánszky family is not expanding. You can follow the latest developments in the SZFE scandal in our article series.

After Cate Blanchett stood out this week with a message in the palm of her hand at the University of Theater and Motion Picture Arts (SZFE), a photo of the famous Australian actress appeared on Twitter on a fan page wearing a T-shirt with the label “Free SZFE”.

In recent days, writer Salman Rushdie, various actors, Eddie Redmayne, Helen Mirren, writer Michael Chabon, and director Pawel Pawlikowski have also stood up for SZFE, but John Lithgow and Eva Green have also joined in.

The university was debated at the Venice Film Festival, Slovak filmmakers and actors sent a message of solidarity, and the world-famous Berlin Theater resigned in protest at the Attila Vidnyánszky Festival.



The former editorial office of index.hu has essentially ceased to exist, the country has lost its most read online interface. This is one of the most serious blows to the independent Hungarian press and freedom of information to date. The number of independent power editorial boards is steadily declining, and those that still exist are trying to stay afloat in a growing headwind. At HVG, we persevere, not giving in to pressure to bring in national and international news every day.

That is why we ask you, our readers, to support us, support us, join our membership and renew it!

And we promise to keep doing our best for you in all circumstances!
