Set in mid-20th century Hungary, a country at the time still overrun by the effects of the war and buried under the lingering shadows of suspicion and mistrust, "The Door" quietly reveals the deeply complex relationship between the affluent, emerging writer, Magda (Martina Gedeck), and the mysterious and distant housekeeper, Emerenc (Helen Mirren). As Magda marches steadily towards professional recognition and success, Emerenc retreats to her past, leading to an emotional discovery with life-changing consequences. Directed by Istvan Szabo ("Being Julia") from the novel by Magda Szabo (no relation).
