Overview

Viktor Orbán was given a rare opportunity in 2010. He won a supermajority in parliament, giving him a strong mandate to put Hungary on a path to development. He also received external assistance for this. The global economy boomed in the 2010s, and Hungary received an unprecedented amount of funding from the European Union, on a scale unseen in over a century. What did Viktor Orbán do with these unprecedented opportunities? To what extent did he keep the promises he made 16 years ago? This film tells that story.
