No Subtitles Necessary: Laszlo & Vilmos follows the lives of renowned cinematographers Laszlo Kovacs and Vilmos Zsigmond from escaping the 1956 Soviet invasion of Hungary to the present day. As film students they shot footage of the brutal Russian invasion of Budapest and smuggled the film out of the country. Barely escaping with their lives, they fled to America and settled in Hollywood where after years of struggle they moved to the forefront as cinematographers of the “American New Wave” and helped change world cinema with films like Easy Rider, McCabe and Mrs. Miller, Five Easy Pieces, Paper Moon, Close Encounters of the Third Kind and The Deer Hunter. Their inspiring and compelling story is told through conversations with over 70 people whose lives they touched and with footage from some of their most memorable films.
