"Forbidden Relations"
1983
Directed by Zsolt Kezdi-Kovacs
A true story of incest
and its repercussions is brought to life in this exceptional drama that goes
far beyond the sensationalism of the subject matter. It is a powerful tale
of two lovers who discover they are half-siblings. They refuse to end their
relationship even after the young woman's pregnancy puts them up against
social ostracism and imprisonment. "...a delirious expression of l'amour
fou, effectively filmed against a prosaic background. Driving, floating
long takes, reminiscent of Kezdi-Kovacs's mentor Miklos Jancso, are used to
express the uncontrollable passion of the young couple..." (Dave Kehr,
Chicago Reader). Hungarian with English subtitles. 92 minutes. |
