Biography
Presser Gábor (born 27 May 1948) is a hungarian song writer, composer and performer, a true icon in hungarian rock music, and music overall. He was a member of Omega from 1969 to 1971, after he founded the succesful band LGT/Locomotive GT. Along with numerous solo hits, he also wrote cult-classic musicals like 'An Imaginary Report on an American Pop Festival', or 'The Attic'.

This short film depicts Omega, one of Hungary's most successful rock bands, on tour in the GDR.
Die Omegas
The documentary-television director duo Jolán Árvai and László Sántha, while making an entertaining documentary-report montage about the rock life of the period between 1957 and 1973, were mainly curious about how and why the movement's sad metamorphosis began. What intention and what mechanism of action resulted in the withering away and slow death of progressive trends; the most vital ones becoming manipulable and commercialized? The filmmakers do not tell the answer, and they do not tell anyone. They leave it up to the viewer to decide whether they want to answer at all. Because if not, the seventy-five minutes of Rockfogyatkozás will still pass quickly. It carries within itself the possibility of a multi-part series offering an optional experience, with which several layers of viewers can be satisfied at the same time.
Rockfogyatkozás
A tableau of the most famous Hungarian beat bands whose fans speak about what music means to them, while some aging people explain why they think this savage type of music should be banned, censored, or at least played without drums.
