Synopsis

An absorbing coming-of-age drama in post-revolutionary Hungary

Set in 1957 Budapest after the failed Hungarian Revolution, twelve-year-old Andor lives with his mother and their tight-knit Jewish community, all closely monitored by the new regime. He holds out hope that his father survived the camps and will someday return home. When a boorish butcher appears from the countryside and claims authority over the family, Andor must confront painful truths about his mother’s mysterious past and her wartime survival.

Oscar-winning director László Nemes’ latest is a gripping coming-of-age about identity and survival in post-revolutionary Budapest. Stunning sepia-toned 35mm visuals from Mátyás Erdély and newcomer Bojtorján Barabás’ revelatory performance as Andor transform one family’s secrets into a haunting meditation on historical trauma.
