Satantango
A small backwater village is the setting for this colossal Hungarian saga. Clocking in at seven hours, Bela Tarr’s film details the plight of the village folk as they prepare to leave. Believing that there are monies owed to them, the villagers wait for a payout, but some of their number and conspiring to leave with more than their fair share. Into this chaotic equation comes Irimiás, a man thought to be dead and one that will be instrumental in trying to keep their community together.
