Synopsis

Legendary Hungarian director, Bela Tarr, has no contemporary equal. He makes films on a monumental scale; films that unfold gradually and gracefully. In an unnamed Hungarian village, visited in the night by a mysterious figure, Tarr immerses the viewer in a unique, singular, cinematic universe.
