Watch: Generation X-Pat: Budapest Hungary

• 11 Feb 2025 6:20 PM

While slightly outdated now, the film still holds up as an introduction to Hungary and its history. And now, 20 years after the fall of the Iron Curtain, we can see what Budapest looked like only a few years after the 'changes' happened.

This is an excerpt of a 45 minute long film:
