“I believe that stories told through the female gaze create space for more honest portrayals of human experience, fostering empathy and a deeper understanding of our world.”
In her work, Borbála Nagy examines the social structures that influence our lives, questioning power and inequality. She aims to provoke dialogue and to reshape collective narratives. For her, cinema is more than storytelling–it's a catalyst for reflection and change.
Questions of loneliness, identity, and self-ownership frequently emerge in her movies, alongside themes of gender, migration, the impact of oppression, and the possibilities of resistance.
Fascinated by human nature, she explores how true character emerges when faced with a moral dilemma. These pivotal moments of self-confrontation, seen against the societal mirror, reveal the essence of the individual.
Despite the weight of her subjects, she finds humor in everyday absurdities, looking at life through a lens of irony.
