Budapest 1957

Description

A year after the brutally suppressed uprising against the communist regime, the world of a young Jewish boy named Andor is turned upside down. While battered Hungary prepares for ostentatious May Day celebrations, a man claiming to be his real father enters Andor's life. László Nemes, an uncompromising filmmaking talent and Oscar winner for Son of Saul, returns with a chilling study of the disintegration of a family and an entire society. This gripping historical film thus becomes a haunting metaphor for the loss of freedom in the machinery of Eastern European history.
