Baryshnikov Arts Center (BAC) is pleased to present the New York premiere of Our Secrets, in which the world-renowned Bela Pinter and Company from Hungary look back at the absurd but true phenomenon of government surveillance of the amateur folk dancing scene in Cold War Budapest.

Our Secrets offers a searing and incisive look at Hungary's Soviet occupied past while providing insight into the present day-WikiLeaks, Edward Snowden, and security cameras on every corner.
