Who would you like to be: Tomóceusz Katatiki (slave-holder) or Gyugyu (slave)? This question pops up at a casual meeting between regulars in a bar. Everybody tries to figure out his own answer. Meanwhile, the historical events unfold and the characters has to make their real choice in real life.
A slow-paced, dialogue driven movie based on a book. Characters played by top actors under good director. Őze Lajos, playing one of the main character, has a really memorable acting here. Music also matches the mood, a little bit grotesque made by a mechanical device, which we can observe at the beginning of the movie. The visuals are usually dark, there are some references and symbols. One of the most noteworthy visual reference is when a Hieronymus Bosch painting (The Garden of Earthly Delights) comes to life.
It's a must see movie from Hungary.
