Landslide (Hungarian: Földindulás) is a 1940 Hungarian drama film directed by Arzén von Cserépy and starring Antal Páger, Olga Eszenyi and Ferenc Kiss. Although ostensibly a romance film, it contained significant amounts of propaganda supportive of the policies of Hungary's far-right government.[1] It was based on a play by János Kodolányi.
