Oscar-winning director László Nemes ' triumphant return delivers a historically groundbreaking and technically unmatched portrait of Budapest in 1957. A 12-year-old boy survives, fueled by the hope of his father's return from the camps, only to have his reality shattered by the arrival of a brutal stranger who claims his place in the home. It is a devastating narrative of postwar trauma where Nemes injects a suffocating realism, demonstrating that the truth is often the final executioner of a family that has nowhere left to hide from history.
