UEFA Finals
The night Budapest became the stadium.
An unofficial animated tribute film featuring the 2026 UEFA Champions League Final, for Visit Budapest. Directed by Péter Bátory, the film was developed in UMBRELLA’s AI video production lab. It blends AI-generated visuals with traditional post-production, a handcrafted approach to a new kind of cinematic storytelling.
A mixed-media portrait of a Final that belongs to players, fans and passers-by alike, each feeling it’s about them. And for one night, they’re all right.
