Romedia Foundation

Ma a Roma Holokauszt áldozataira emlékezünk.
Emlékezünk azokra, akik életüket vesztették, és azokra, akik túlélték a népirtást, és történeteik, emlékeik tovább élhettek.

Az emlékezés nem csupán a múltról szól. Felelősségünk, hogy megőrizzük az áldozatok emlékét, továbbadjuk történeteiket, és fellépjünk a gyűlölet, a rasszizmus és a cigányellenesség minden formája ellen.

Augusztus 2-át, az Európa Parlament a Roma Holokauszt Európai Emléknapjává nyilvánította.
Emléket állítva ezzel az 1944. augusztus 2-án éjszaka több mint 4000 roma gyermeknek, nőnek és férfinak, akiket egy éjszaka alatt gyilkoltak meg Auschwitz-Birkenauban és a több mint 500 000 romának, akik a holokauszt során vesztették életüket.

We part of our community the ERGO Network! Celebrate with us!

Katalin Bársony (Romedia Foundation, director of the film I Saw a 'Suno')
Stephan Müller (Central Council of German Sinti and Roma)

The discussion was moderated by Costel Bercus.

We also sincerely appreciate the opening remarks by MEP Zoltán Tarr and Gabriela Hrabaňová, Director of the ERGO Network.

Moments like these remind us of the importance of storytelling in raising awareness and driving change.

We’re proud to share that I Saw a “Suno”, directed by Katalin Bársony and co-produced by the Romedia Foundation, Baxt Films and Visible Films has been awarded Outstanding Excellence at the (WRPN) Women’s International Film Festival (Spring 2026).

The WRPN Women’s International Film Festival is a global platform dedicated to celebrating women filmmakers and creators, receiving a high number of submissions from around the world each season. Being recognized in this highly competitive international context highlights the film’s outstanding artistic and narrative achievement.

This recognition marks the first festival award for the film, following its premiere in Sarajevo and screenings at Thessaloniki and BIDF. Notably, I Saw a “Suno” was the only film from Central and Eastern Europe in this year’s award selection.

The project is driven by a strong team of women creators behind the camera, including Galya Stoyanova, Marianna Rudas, and Georgina Laboda, Kata Barsony director, whose work has been essential in shaping the film’s vision, depth, and authenticity.

I Saw a “Suno” continues the important work of amplifying Romani voices through self-represented storytelling, challenging stereotypes and bringing nuanced, lived experiences to the screen.

We also warmly congratulate fellow awardees in this year’s selection: ReEarth – Dharma Pundarika: Rights of Nature (Australia) and Allowed to Birth: The Journey of a Global Midwife (Argentina/United States), directed by Jacinta Lagos.

A meaningful milestone for Romani-led cinema and for inclusive, diverse storytelling in the global audiovisual landscape. Hurray!
