Macskafogó (Cat City) Béla Ternovszky,1986
Here's one of the rare Hungarian animated features that I actually recall being released in the United States, although it was very limited and poorly publicized.

Lúdas Matyi (Matt the Goose Boy) Attila Dargay, 1977
Another Hungarian feature, this one is dubbed in English.

Hófehér (Slow White) József Nepp, 1984
OK, someone posted a some Hungarian features with English subs and I am really unreasonably excited about this.
This one is a wry take on Snow White.

János Vitéz (John the Valiant) Marcell Jankovics, 1973
The tale of the Hungarian folk hero John the Valiant, as animated by Marcell Jankovics. You might recall he is the director of the stunning visual feast that is Fehérlófia: this is not quite as bonkers, but bears a lot of the same stylistic flourish.
This is a feature, so get comfy.

Szaffi, Attila Dargay, 1984
OOH It's a FEATURE. From Hungary!
Don't worry, though, it's got English subtitles. Unlike what I usually do to you.

Transfigured, Stephen Arthur, 1998
An homage to Canadian artist Jack Shadbolt--the late "eminence gris" of West Coast modernism--made entirely of 80 of his paintings animated as interacting entities in a contiguous environment. Transformation. Surrealism. Symbolic abstraction. Fine art animation. Filmmaker Stephen Arthur took 3 years, working full time, to create the 5-minute film (released in 1998).
