Made in Hungaria is 2009 Hungarian comedy-musical film written by István Tasnádi, Miklós Fenyő and Norbert Köbli and directed by Gergely Fonyó. Adapted from a stage musical with the same title, it follows the life of a group of teens from Hungary in the late 1960s, while the country was under Communist rule. The film received generally positive reviews. Plot Forced to return to Communist Hungary from America with his parents, Miki (Tamás Szabó Kimmel) brings a rebellious attitude, a trunkful of rock records, and an ambition to be the next Jerry Lee Lewis. He falls foul of the family's minder, Comrade Bigali (Peter Scherer) and is forced to perform a nationalistic folk song with Bigali's son in the school talent show. His rocking performance wins everyone over and redeems him with his friends and his girl, Vera (Tünde Kiss).
