The ELTE-NFI FILMIO University Film Club screening and discussion series continues! The organizers welcome both Hungarian and international students from all ELTE Faculties.
A film by world-famous director Béla Tarr, who passed away at the beginning of the year, based on the novel by Nobel Prize winner László Krasznahorkai. Black and white Hungarian-German-French-Italian drama, 140 min, with Hungarian subtitles.
A travelling circus unexpectedly arrives in a boring, quiet small town in the Hungarian Plain. Two of its attractions attract the public’s attention: the prince with the giant whale. Strangers also come to the town, whom the prince enrages and incites to destruction, along with the locals. a short time, all hell breaks loose, which common sense is unable to stop. The work paints a dark picture of our human present and future, in which there is no longer any place for idealism, and where the sharp line between killers and victims is often blurred.
In main roles: Lars Rudolph, Peter Fitz, Hanna Schygulla, Péter Dobai, Ferenc Kállai, Kati Lázár
