The underground music subcultures of Budapest are an integral part of Hungarian culture. The makers of this documentary series set out to map the defining youth and music subcultures of the ’90s and 2000s. A detailed and comprehensive documentary series on the trends of the post-1989 underground scene has not yet been developed for the screen. In the nineties, just following the collapse of the iron curtain, western influences found fertile ground in Hungary, allowing many trends to peak in popularity. Hardcore-punk, rock/metal, hip hop, electronic music, ska, rockabilly, and many other genres of music were mixed with a special Hungarian flavor to form an exciting ambiance.
