It's advertisement makes this film look like your avarage boring, depressing arthouse drama. It's anything but. It's amazing, full of twists, suspense, and well-written characters. The conflicts feel true, organic not make up by a screenwriter. As you're watching, you're constantly changing who's side you're on and only the best movies can achieve that.
It is hands down the best-written Hungarian film of the year for me.
The film is a little over 2 hours long but you really don't feel it, since it's constantly moving and doesn't really have any dull moments.
And the performances are amazing as well. The cast just disappears in their characters and I don't know the last time when I saw an ensamble this good in a Hungarian film.
And it has a surprising amount of humor too.
Overall, I really loved it, great piece of cinema, one of the best Hungarian movies of the last years.
Unfortunately not many people will see this film and it's a huge loss for them...
