Hungarian film master Bela Thar has died. He was 70.

Foreign media, including AFP and AP, reported on the 6th (local time) that Bellatar died on the same day. The cause of death has not been determined.

Director Bellatar was famous for enjoying directing techniques such as long take and black-and-white screen, which are filming techniques that take long shots at once without cuts.

Representative works include "Satantango," a 1994 work with a long running time of seven hours, and "The Man from London."

He announced his retirement in 2011 after his last feature film, "The Words of Torino," but he directed short films in 2017 and 2019, respectively.

He is also deeply linked to Krusner-Horker, a Hungarian writer who won the Nobel Prize for Literature last year. Based on a novel co-written with Laslo, Krusnerhorke directed the first independent feature film "Curse," and the masterpiece "Satantango" also originated from Krusnerhorkei Laslo's novel.

Director Bellatar visited the Busan International Film Festival in 2014 and met with domestic audiences.
