Synopsis

Respected 40-year-old neurosurgeon Márta meets fellow surgeon János at a conference and decides to leave her shining American career behind and return to Budapest to start a new life with him. But when they finally meet, János claims he and Márta have never previously met, let alone fallen in love.

Our take

With film noir tension and dreamlike enchantment, Lili Horvát sweeps us off our feet with a love story pulsating with refined mystery. Carried by a magnetic performance from Natasa Stork—in her first leading film role!—this mesmerizing, elegant enigma is reminiscent of both Kieślowski and Hitchcock.
