An impressive fresco about rural characters from contemporary Hungary. The life on an abandoned farm and everyone`s dreams of running away. They have all lost the values that could determine the reason for their existence and circulate throughout the film like souls. Their secrets, gradually broken, lead us on a dizzying journey. Adapted from the debut novel of the same name by writer László Krasznahorkai.
Winner of the Caligari Film Award at the 1994 Berlin International Film Festival.
Restored by Arbelos Film Distribution & Digital Film Restoration and Hungarian Filmlab.
