MARCH 24-MAY 21, “AZ ANGYAL VALASZOL”- “TALKING WITH ANGELS”, a Play, with Shelley Mitchell,San Francisco, The Actors Center,
 Budapest 1943: Talking with Angels is not a metaphor. It is the story of four unassuming young artists' search for meaning and survival amidst the chaos of Nazi occupied Hungary. They find transcendence in the face of tragedy. Taken directly from their diaries, the remarkable philosophical conversations come to life in this luminous monodrama performed by Shelley Mitchell.

Pivotal Women Directors of Hungarian Cinema:  Márta Mészáros and Ildikó Enyedi
"Director Ildiko Enyedi evidently intended My Twentieth Century as an allegorical statement concerning the status of women in the modern mechanical age. The experiences of the twins are interspersed with shots of Thomas Edison, whom we see at the beginning of the film perfecting his incandescent light bulb on the very day that the sisters are born. The more technological advances made by Edison, the more confused the twins become in establishing their own roles in an advancing civilization."  (New York Times)
