Mutter
The poignant story of a Hungarian woman-the director's mother- who flees her country with her six-year old son after the 1956 uprising, while her husband is executed by the Communist regime as a "counterrevolutionary." She leads an émigré life in Switzerland but since the end of the Cold War returns regularly to Hungary, where her husband has become a posthumous hero. But she enjoys no peace: in her homeland, she is now called on to answer insidious questions about her positions during the dark Stalinist years. A turbulent life in which love and politics spin inextricable bonds.
