- TriviaBecause of the film's topic, the Hungarian Government didn't grant funding for the movie so it had a small budget and crew. Most of the actors playing in it are the writer-director, Gábor Reisz's friends, students or teachers.
Featured review
Waste of time
This movie was an utter trash, it doesn't know what it's want to be and to be honest it's just not making sense at all - I'm saying this as a Hungarian.
It had a few scenes though that I though wow, okay not finally something happening, but the director decided to just left those threads as they are, without continuing them at all..After walking out of the theatre I felt like robbed - not only money-wise but time-wise too. This poorly made script could have been staged in less then an hour, but this slow, tragically bad acting most of the times lead to painfully long dialogues and scenes.
I think this is a perfect example how not to make a movie. It had a potential, they could create some kind of comparison to the socialist regime change in the past, but the awful director let that thread too to disappear in the ether.
I wouldn't recommend to watch this garbage to anyone, who loves movies. 1/10 (would give 0 to be honest)
