In Budapest, the First Deputy Minister of Culture of Uzbekistan, Avazkhon Tadzhikhanov, held talks with the Director of the Hungarian Film Institute, Csaba Kael, and the cultural advisor of the "Petőfi" Agency, Reka Csury-Banyai, reports Dunyo IA correspondent.
During the meeting, the parties discussed prospects for Uzbek-Hungarian cooperation in the film industry and agreed to film one of the episodes of the joint feature film "The Echelon Goes to Samarkand" in Hungary, a project involving the British studio New State Pictures Ltd.
In addition, the Minister of Culture was briefed on the progress of the film "Hermann Vámbéry and Mulla Ishok", a collaborative project between Uzbekistan and Hungary.
It was reported that the movie "The Echelon Goes to Samarkand" is based on the eponymous novel by the Tatar writer Guzel Yakhina, published in March 2021. The novel is set in 1923 aboard the train "Dzerzhinsky", heading south, where a group of five hundred starving children make a desperate attempt to escape and reach a safe haven.
