Marcell Torok was born in Zalaegerszeg, Hungary, in 1990, and has been making films since 2008. After graduating from the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design's Media Design faculty in 2015, he began film directing studies at the University of Theater and Film Arts (SZFE), Budapest. In his opinion, the most important thing in making movies is that the crew, as a group of creative people, love watching other people's stories and wanting to share these on the screen.

Péter Forgács is a media artist and independent filmmaker based in Budapest. Since 1978 he has made more than thirty films and several media installations. He is best known for his "Private Hungary" series of award-winning films and installations, which are often based on home movies from the 1920s-1980s that document the ordinary lives soon to be ruptured by an extraordinary, historical trauma occurring off-screen.
