Gábor Osváth
Producer
Born in 1985, Gábor Osváth started his studies at the University of Theatre and Film Arts of Budapest in 2008. The first school project he produced introduced him to director Bálint Szimler and cinematographer Marcell Rév - this movie ('Here I Am') landed at the Cinéfondation competition of Cannes in 2010. In 2012, he formed the company Filmfabriq which produces short films, documentaries and commercials. Later, he also formed Boddah - this time with Szimler and Rév.
Boddah quickly established itself as a strong force in Hungarian cinema with then music documentary Balaton Method and festival-favorite animations such as LOVE, Superbia, Mr. Mare and the Cannes Palme d’or winning 27.
In 2024, Boddah released Bálint Szimler’s the debut feature film Lesson Learned, which debuted in Locarno Film Festival and has been a surprise box office hit in Hungary with over 125,000 admissions.
Gábor is also heading Boddah's stand-up comedy division, organizing Hungarian shows for comedians such as Eddie Izzard, Bill Burr, Louis CK and many more. He is the co-head of Friss Hús Budapest International Short Film Festival.
