Based on the experiences of author Déry’s time as a political prisoner at the hands of Hungary’s repressive ‘50s regime, Makk’s stunning film - depicting the attempts of a wife to appease the feelings of her elderly, ailing mother-in-law by hiding the fact of her son's incarceration by perpetuating a white lie about his actual whereabouts - is a film of great intensity and invention, filled with affecting performances and jolting imagery, which will likely haunt its viewers' memories for years to come.
