Mafilm[1][2] was established in 1948. It has been the largest and most significant film studio in Hungary and a strategic base for the Hungarian film industry. Mafilm's history has seen days of glory, just as it has survived severe agonies. The roots of its birth go back to Kolozsvár, and its ancestors include Europe's third-largest silent film factory. Ever since Korda Sándor (his original Hungarian name, later Alexander Korda) founded the predecessor of Mafilm, film production has been going on uninterrupted. The importance of the place is also enhanced by the fact that there are almost no Hungarian filmmakers who have not learned the basics of film profession here. Mafilm's history with its predecessors covers more than 100 years of Hungarian film history.
