Balázs Szendőfi
Wildlife Filmmaker and Fish Researcher
How long can we keep draining, redirecting, and exploiting our waters before we run completely dry? Hungary is facing a slow but steady water crisis, yet we still treat rivers, wetlands, and groundwater like they’re infinite. Balázs Szendőfi is a fish researcher and wildlife filmmaker who has spent years documenting the unseen transformations of our aquatic ecosystems. Through science and storytelling, he makes it painfully clear what we stand to lose if we keep ignoring how water actually works. At Brain Bar, he’ll challenge the myths we tell ourselves about water abundance and invite us to rethink how we care for our most vital resource.
