The press is currently buzzing about The Boy and the Gray Heron, but the 1991 animated film Only Yesterday is definitely worth watching, if only because a beautiful Hungarian folk song plays in the background, and it can be said that it guides the entire story. .
The film itself is beautiful, not full of action or romance. It only shows everyday life and the regrets that come with it, good and bad memories, which
Márta Sebestyén's song "Creation" makes it unforgettable.
This is not the first time that the Japanese pay tribute to Hungarian culture in this way. One or the other moment or element of Hungarianness has appeared in many films and series, which always enjoys huge popularity.
