Biography

Mónika Mécs finished her studies at SZFE Hungarian University of Theatre and Film Arts as a producer in 1996. After she began her work at “Fekete Doboz” Black Box , which was a documentary filmmaking company, which reported on every historical cut-off and social crisis’ centre on the soviet side of the Iron Curtain before the democratic transformation. In 2005 with her husband, Ernő Mesterházy they established M&M film Production company. The company’s first big success was the film “The End” (Konyec) directed by Gábor Rohonyi in 2007. The film was released all around the European movie scene, furthermore, it was in the Japanese movie programme too.

In the past decade the M&M Film Production company’s work stands behind most of the successful Hungarian popular films. But M&M Film also produced such art films as the Beast directed by Till Attila (2011), or Szabolcs Hajdu’s Bibliotheques Pascal in 2010 (as a co-producer).During this period Mónika Mécs started a big feature film with András Muhi who was the manager at Inforg Studio, and became the producer of Milky Way (directed by: Benedek Fliegauf, 2007) or the film called Womb also directed by Benedek Fliegauf, 2010. The M&M film and Inforg Studio merged in the same year and established Inforg-M&M Film (IMM). The new company’s first film Just the Wind directed by Benedek Fliegauf (2012) won the Silver Bear at the Berlin International Film Festival, and five years later in 2017 On Body and Soul directed by Ildiko Enyedi won the Golden Bear prize. There are currently many short fiction films and feature films at IMM under production, the most prominent is “The Story of My Wife” developed by Ildiko Enyedi, and “Glowman” by Benedek Fliegauf.

She is a prominent female figure in the Hungarian film industry as a successful producer, and an advocate for equality in the industry. "We female artists can contribute our part to this cause by pursuing our careers and perhaps setting a good example to women who are lacking in faith in themselves, in their opportunities, or their ability to achieve their goals," she said. "We believe that even if we cannot offer a ready-made solution, we can certainly show the way forward and prove that it is possible and worthwhile starting out on this journey, as women can also achieve great results."
