"Devastating, enthralling for every minute of its seven hours." - Susan Sontag

Hungarian auteur Bela Tarr´s 7-hour, black-and-white epic based on the novel by Laszlo Karsznahorkai took two years to film. The complex story follows a group of people living in a dilapidated village in post-communist Hungary. Tarr examines their standstill lives through a series of episodes told from each person´s point-of-view.
