The event will feature selected clips from We Are Pat, along with insights into Haber’s filmmaking process and an opportunity for discussion.

This event is organized by the students from The Film and Media:  Persuasive Design class of 2026.

Máté Novák, Hunter’s film student, co-wrote, co-directed, co-produced and acted (lead role) in a short film made entirely on a budget of $0 that is gaining traction on social media called 

NOW I SEE. Máté was invited to present the film at the Hungarian Consulate on October 6^th for its creative reimagining of space, cast, crew and no budget. Máté filmed on location in Hungary (his birth country) for 2.5 days and all equipment was donated to the production. Máté and his collaborators asked 13 equipment houses for help, all said NO, except one.
