Por Electra
Editor
Reminiscente dos últimos trabalhos de Bela Tarr, "Electra, Meu Amor" de Miklós Jancsó é constituída por uma série de extremamente lentos e extremamente longos planos (há apenas oito tomas principais, cada uma com duração de uma bobine inteira de filme). Mais vídeo de música contemplativa do que filme convencional, "Electra, Meu Amor" é baseado em "Oresteia", um mito grego escrito por Ésquilo, um dramaturgo trágico antigo. O filme é protagonizado por Marie Toriocsik como Electra, uma mulher torturada que serve como uma espécie de metáfora para o povo da Hungria e seu sofrimento histórico. Ela percorre a paisagem de Jancso com uma cara melancólica, com raiva de Aegisztosz por conspirar com sua mãe para matar Agamenon, seu pai.

Beyond Time
Editor
The story of the film takes place in 1929 in a model prison providing a kind of reflection how society works out there. Udvardi, the weakling and indulgent director is experimenting with putting in practice a kind of pseudo-humanist utopia about the institution of a 'civilised prison'.

Alegory of the suppression of the 1919 revolution and the advent of fascism in Hungary; in the countryside, a unit of the revolutionary army spares the life of father Vargha, a fanatical priest.

The Confrontation

Paralleling the dramatic student protests and riots that were exploding across the world in the 1960s at the time the film was made, The Confrontation is a story of protest and rebellion in 1947 Hungary when the Communist Party have just taken power.
