6.00 - 7.00 pm – Registration 7.00 - 8.30 pm – Film BURDOSHÁZ AMERIKÁBÓL: Balogh Balázs néprajzkutató nyomában (English subtitles) A film a magyar emigránsok nehéz életét mutatja be egy pennsylvaniai magyar bányásztelepülésen, Vintondale-ben, az ott összegyűjtött tárgyi emlékeken és a rekonstruált burdosházon (bányász férfiaknak fenntartott személyenkénti félnapos ágybérletet nyújtó panzión) keresztül. A település egykoron jelentős lélekszámú magyar lakossága elsősorban a Bereg megyei Bátyuból származik. Bagu Balázs falutársaival az agrárnyomor elől tántorgott ki Amerikába, majd a nyugat-pennsylvaniai bányavidék világtól elzárt kis telepén éjjel-nappal az aknákban görnyedve, centet centre rakva vásárolt egy burdosházat. A világgazdasági válság következtében a bánya bezárt. A lakosság többsége nem tudott visszatérni a szülőföldre és szétszóródott. A film egy családtörténeten keresztül – mint cseppben a tengert – igyekszik bemutatni az amerikai magyarok első nemzedékének életvilágát.
