    • Synopsis
    • BP Underground is a documentary series
      about several underground youth
      subcultures of Budapest, Hungary in the
      90s and 2000s, right after the fall of the
      iron curtain.
      The underground scene of Budapest,
      and its musical subcultures are inherent
      parts of the vast Hungarian culture.
      The series deals with the community
      building aspects of these groups, and
      how they affected our society - and still
      do today. It explores how did Budapest
      itself contribute to this phenomenon.
      What kind of unwritten rules applied to
      these subcultural groups? What symbols
      and specific outfits? What were
      their very own venues, and main figures
      that these scenes were centred around?
      And what’s the personal story behind all
      this?
      The first episode about hardcore/punk
      is completed.
