"Every year, arthouse cinemas in the Netherlands become more and more popular. Last year was no different, seeing a total of 3,9 million visitors - 12 percent more than in 2024 and the highest level in 10 years."

I met Béla Tarr twice. Once in 2000 in his birthplace Pécs where I studied film, and once in 2011 in Budapest, during a Q&A following a screening of his THE TURIN HORSE as part of that year’s SCSMI conference (the quote is from this second encounter, appearing in András Bálint Kovács’s book on Tarr)
