Presented at the Cirko-Gejzír cinema, the digitally restored version of Béla Tarr's Sátántangó can be seen on 16 and 17 November. Based on a book by László Krasznahorkai, the film follows members of a small, defunct agricultural collective living in a post-apocalyptic landscape after the fall of Communism who, on the heels of a large financial windfall, set out to leave their village. As a few of the villagers secretly conspire to take off with all of the earnings for themselves, a mysterious character, long thought dead, returns, altering the course of everyone’s lives forever.

The film screens in Hungarian, with English subtitles and two intervals.
