CEU20 (2013)

Central European University (CEU) marked its 20th anniversary in 2011 with academic and cultural events including the commission of documentary film by U.S. filmmaker Peter Almond. In CEU20, Almond explores the parallels between the dramatic events surrounding CEU's birth in 1991 and shifting political conditions 20 years later. Intimate interviews and rich historical footage illuminate one of Europe's groundbreaking universities, placing it in within the historical context of challenges to democracy and ongoing political and social transformations.
