Born on 4 February 1912, Gyula Macskássy began his career in the early 1930s, and although attempts at animated film had been made in Hungary long before that, he is considered the father of Hungarian animation. His personality and work provided continuity between the pre-war and post-nationalisation periods. He founded his first private studio together with János Halász and Félix Kassowitz, who later worked as a cartoonist. After the nationalisation of 1948, the Pannónia Film Studio was born after a few years of transition from the animation studio (including Attila Dargay), which was now run exclusively by Gyula Macskássy, and which became a stronghold of animation a few decades later.

Produced at the National Film Institute - Film Archive.
