Freedom's Fury (narrated by Mark Spitz)

FREEDOM'S FURY is the critically acclaimed feature documentary about the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and the ""Bloodiest Game in Olympic History."" This hard-hitting doc tells the story of the fateful moment in 1956 when Hungary explodes in a people power revolt and climaxes with the infamous water polo showdown between Hungary and the Soviets at the Melbourne Olympics. Now known as the ""Blood in the Water Match,"" the documentary follows the journey of the Hungarian Olympic water polo team and its young star, Ervin Zador, who find themselves the unwitting focal point of the most politicized sports match ever played.

 

Immediately Following:
Q&A with the Director, Mr. Colin Keith Gray and three-times Olympic Champion coach Dr. Dénes Kemény

Q&A discussion to be accompanied by a selection of wine and cheese. All are warmly invited, please bring a friend!

This event is sponsored by 1956 Hungarian Revolution and Freedom Fight 60th Anniversary Memorial Board
