A Plaque for Emeric
16-23 September 2007
Gabriella Varga reported:
I have good news for you from Miskolc, Emeric's native city. We would like to place a plaque on the house he was born (3,Szentpéteri Kapu) during a film festival for young filmmakers in September. Also the organisers are thinking of giving out a special prize emblemed with his name and to invite his relatives to the festival.Emeric's parent's house is at Szentpéteri Kapu 3. (3 Gate of Saint Peter's). Miskolc has 4 'Gates' that are the four main streets leading out from the city. This particular one goes to the North and leads to Sajószentpéter.
Here are a few photos that Gabi took of the house:
The plaque was erected in November 2007 by the City of Miskolc and CineFest - Miskolc International Film Festival
