Love ( Szerelem )
Based on two short stories by Hungarian author Tobor Dery, this film explores how individuals survive in the face of adversity and the absence of a loved one. Directed by Karoly Makk , it timelessly tells of a man arrested on political charges, his wife's on-going care of his elderly mother, and the illusion she creates. Set in the 1950s this tender black-and-white Hungarian drama won the Prix du Jury at the 1971 Cannes Film Festival.
