He had got government financial support[10] for shooting A győztes (The winner) short movie in 2013. The movie was selected in Odense International Film Festival Programme in 2015 and also was selected in BestOFF15 selection of the Festival organiser Danish Film Institute, among the best 11 movies.[11] The film was one of the four Hungarian films that were selected into the Special Screening section as the focus of the 12th Akbank Short Film Festival (2016) in Turkey.
