Budapest Noir

In 1936, a cynical journalist (Krisztián Kolovratnik) had seen it all covering the crime beat in the Hungarian capital, and hadn’t given a second thought about his flirtatious café encounter with a beautiful stranger (Franciska Törőcsik). When her subsequent brutal murder met with a non-response from the authorities, his dogged inquiries as to why might bring him peril from the politically powerful. Atmospheric effort co-stars Réka Tenki, János Kulka, Adél Kováts. 94 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: Hungarian; Subtitles: English; theatrical trailers. In Hungarian with English subtitles.
