There are currently three big stages and several smaller to mid size studios. The three big stages are owned by Mafilm, which used to be a state owned national film production studio in the communist era and have continued to play a role in the Hungarian film production industry in the recent post-communist years.
Mafilm has a stage in Budapest and a large facility with two stages and a back lot area used for building exterior set in a nearby town, Fót. A medieval village set has been around in the Fót back lot for the past ten years. Another large facility called Stern Studio opened in 2004 in a small town called Pomáz, just 18 kms north of the city. Overall, construction is considered to be of excellent quality and very good value.
