15/08/2026

Our first student film for 2026, the neo-noir film, ‘Dive into the Night’.

Synopsis: 1989. Night. In the pouring rain, a shadowy underworld figure stands before an orphanage, taking one last drag before receiving a mysterious bag. From inside, a young girl crawls out. He promises he’ll come back for her — he just has “one thing to take care of” at the local dive bar. What follows is a gun-blazing, grotesquely humorous neo-noir action drama. The stakes: survive for the sake of your child… or grow up in a single night.

Director: Dávid Géczy
