University of Theatre and Film Arts in Budapest
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Academy of Drama and Film in Budapest (Hungarian: Színház- és Filmművészeti Egyetem, SZFE) is an educational institution founded in 1865 in Budapest, Hungary. It became a university in 2000 and the name was changed to University of Theatre and Film Arts.[2]
On 31 August 2020, the university's management resigned in protest at the imposition of a government-appointed board of trustees which they saw as limiting the university's autonomous status.[3] A group of students took over the school building in protest and barricaded themselves inside.[4] Several artists signed an open letter in defense of the autonomy of the school.[5]
