The Danish DR 2 TV channel has completed the shooting of a documentary in Budapest and Kecskemét about the Hungarian revolution in 1956.

The filmmakers - the reporter Christoffer Emil Bruun and the writer Niels Barfoedvisit - visited all the scenes where the Red Cross activist Ole Lippman played active role during the revolution with his special "moving hospital". The story of the famous Danish diplomat Povl Bang-Jensen appears in the documenraty as well, through the interviews with prominent persons of the time.

The Danish Cultural Institute in Kecskemét lended a helping hand to the creators of the film. The documentary can be seen in the Institute later.
