The past fifty-two years of the art and production of cartoons, or animated films, in Hungary have been marked by the elements, motifs, and influences of Hungarian folk culture in one way or another. Throughout these decades, numerous films were produced which, in their subject matter, formal design, or music, clearly demonstrated an affiliation with those popular traditions which we could either call popular culture, folk art, or simply folk tradition in general.
