the two biggest companies of hungary are mol (oil comp.) and otp (no. 1 bank). these companies are treated 'national' by government because - they say - they represent national interest and they have to stay under hungarian control. these companies are in reality only 25 percent in hungarian hand, and from that ~25 7-8 percent is cross-ownership between them - so only ~13 is in local hands. the funny thing is that they even introduced a low to protect these national companies as omv of austria wanted to hostilely take over mol. and people discussed how important is that protecting it from evil foreigners :)
at least by mol you can see some real owners, but now chance to get that info about otp. can't believe that no one else has more than 5 % than groupama and mr. rahimkolov.

how hungarian politics are
this film is giving some insgiht about the sad reality how hungarian society looks like. for a bunge of people politics is even more important like family or friendsip, they are breaking up these relations becuse of other political views. in my opinion, fidesz, the conservative (but better populist) party has a big responsibility, declaring that the good hungarian is their voter, and who is not supporting them is a betrayer.
sadly rasist and nationalist happenings are more and more often. we had to get used to it, that on every national holiday nazi-looking people are rebeling on the streets. last week in the east of the country roma families' houses were attacked by molotov cocktails, and two people killed by hunterguns. it will be all the time harder to find back to european ways.
