Contents/Summary

Summary
The film is a pioneering effort to disclose the underlying mechanisms of the political conflict that has divided Hungary since the change of regime in 1989. It is the story of a broken friendship and a family that has completely fallen apart under the strain of differing political convictions. Two Jewish friends were separated when one of them became a right-wing party (Fidesz) representative. A right-wing Jew! Zsuzsa separated from her husband in 2002, after they had stopped talking to each other, and even her child ignored her. “There isn’t a drop of patriotism in you: you’re unfit to be a mother!”. Barely twenty years after the political changes raised such great expectations, all seems muddled. Feud, hatred and isolation. Is there a way out?
