Text, photo, film, sound, and object photo chronicling the democratic transition in Hungary. By placing different accounts of events side by side, as they unfolded and recorded in various sources, this collection presents multiple perspectives of 1989. Renewed in 2019, the Joseph Pulitzer Memorial Award-winning curated collection has been amended with newly acquired and digitized documents, including video materials of the Black Box Foundation, Radio Free Europe (RFE) transcripts of István Kemény’s broadcasts, documents of the Budapest Reform Circle Movement of the Hungarian Socialist Workers’ Party, as well as sound recordings of Hungarian programs of RFE and BBC, and photos of Piroska Nagy and the Deutsche Kinemathek.
