The Summer When I Found My Story
H/NL 2024, 92 min., Rating: Ages 6 and up, recommended for ages 10 and up
The lively Nina grows up in a creative family—her father works as a filmmaker, while her brother loves to perform magic tricks. She herself dreams of becoming a writer. With the help of her quirky neighbor, she ventures into writing her first story and becomes the main character herself in the process. She writes about life with her family, her daily routine at school and on the sports field, and her first love. As time goes on, she delves deeper and deeper into the life of her mother, who died young. Through the solidarity within her family—and not least through her writing—she gradually finds a way to come to terms with her grief, and in the process helps her father find new happiness.
This family film has taken audiences by storm and is one of the most successful films for young audiences in Hungarian history. Beyond its box-office success, the film has also received international recognition, winning, among other accolades, the Children’s Best Film Award at the prestigious 2024 Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival.
Based on the children’s book *How, Quite by Chance, My Life Became a Book* by Annet Huizing.

The vacation is finally here! Little Nick is thrilled because this time his family is going to the beach. After a completely chaotic trip there, they arrive at their hotel, and Nick is absolutely thrilled. He quickly makes friends on the beach.

"This delightful film thrives on a playful retro look and a lovingly curated soundtrack from the 1960s; a charming nod to the French comedy tradition." filmdienst.de
