Jókai 200 – a flash mob for literature, captured from above

10/11/2025

Students and teachers celebrated the 200th anniversary of Mór Jókai's birth with a special flash mob: together they "wrote in the sky" Jókai's name and favorite quotes through a choreography of placards, books, and symbolic props. The spectacular event was recorded from a bird's-eye view by the NIA – Németh Imre Foundation's drone, with dynamic flyovers and panoramic orbits, bringing to life both the festive mood and the strength of the community.

The organizers' goal was to turn classical literature into an experience: the meeting of modern technology and a communal art form built a bridge between Jókai's legacy and today's youth. A short film edited from the footage will be available on the school's and the foundation's channels, encouraging other communities to create similar, value-driven commemorations.
