Sing (Mindenki) - by Kristof Deák | Oscar winning short film about social injustice

Zsofi is struggling to fit in at her new school – singing in the school’s famous choir is her only consolation, but the choir director may not be the inspirational teacher everyone thinks she is. It will take Zsofi and her new friend Liza to uncover the cruel truth.
"Sing" is a childhood drama with a lot of music set in 1990s post-socialist Budapest, Hungary.
