A Thought Provoking Tale

I've been on a Hungarian cinema kick this month for sure, and boy have I found some winners. This movie takes a hard look at life in the Soviet Union. Imagine living in a time or place where freedom was not an accepted concept. Where keeping your family fed and happy was out of your hands.

I love movies that force the viewer and the characters in the film to re-evaluate their outlook on life and their own capacity for sympathy and understanding. This film does just that.

You will have a new and deeper understanding of these times for having watched this film. It really did prove to me that Hungarian cinema is alive and well.
