Two Orthodox Jews arrive in a small remote rural Hungarian village which is getting ready for the wedding of the magistrate’s son. They’re accompanied by two coffin-like wooden crates supposedly filled with perfumes and soaps. Is this the start of a Jewish influx, reclaiming properties? Histories resurface, rumours spread wildly, paranoia reigns, and the villagers behave accordingly. This subtle and nuanced film is atmospherically shot in black and white with the mood of the film ably enhanced by Tibor Szemzö’s soundtrack. The filmmaker has sensitively examined the European war’s postscript, a period of history that everyone quickly wanted to forget.
