Love

(Szerelem)
A film by Károly Makk
Hungary, 1971

Károly Makk's beloved film, based on the autobiographical writings of Tibor Déry, is a meditation on time. memory, love and loss.

Two women - an elderly mother and a wife - await the return of political prisoner János.

Beautifully played by two giants of Hungarian cinema, Lili Darvas and Mari Törõcsik, the film
is a subtle yet powerful exploration of the consequences of living under totalitarian rule.

Perfectly realised, Makk's tender masterpiece comes to Blu-ray for the first time anywhere in a gorgeous new 4K restoration.

“Makk's haunting, atmospheric and beautifully performed film, brilliantly shot by János Tóth, captures exactly the fear and uncertainty of the time... outstanding”
