"I was lucky enough to catch a special screening of this film, the winner of the Silver Bear award, and Hungarian nomination for Best Foreign Language Film. It is very beautifully-shot, managing a slow pace and prominent ambiguity to guide its very tense atmosphere. Intimate portrayals of the characters at hand reach at utmost importance as they are personally effected by a local tragedy. Though it can be a bit sluggish at points, it is also very engrossing and, once again, shot very nicely. "
