The participants of the Living Library programme are provided an opportunity to talk to people from various minority groups in person, to people against whom they used to be prejudiced. We have made two short documentaries about the programme organised by the Budapest Youth Centre of the Council of Europe: the first one, Legyen a feminista (Let It Be the Feminist) (2011), was shot at the Sziget Festival. The film is available for viewing at http://vimeo.com/38208134. The second one, Beszéltem, zsidóval, cigánnyal, és hajléktalannal (I Have Talked to Jews, Gypsies and Homeless) (2013), was shot at Than Károly Secondary School. The film is available for viewing at http://vimeo.com/57940465. Can a 30-minute dialogue change prejudices?
