A former inspector is called in to investigate a child murder. A suspect confesses to the crime, but knowing that the confession came only after the man was browbeaten, the inspector's instincts tell him that the man is not the murderer and there is a serial killer at work. However, he is alone in his assessment and the case is closed. He is warned by a psychiatrist that the murderer he seeks might not exist, and he might drive himself mad with his obsession in finding the man... (Summary by Alex Watkins)

(Viewed on 12/10/13): This moody funeral like dirge of a crime 'thriller' filmed in stark b+w is a near perfect blend of genre and art house. Feher uses trance inducing long takes to conjure up an overwhelming sense of dread and unease. Like a gothic Bela Tarr, the slow burn pressure cooker intensity is not a million miles away from The Man From London except it is better. This is essential viewing for both Tarr fans and fans of art films that operate loosely within established genres.

With music that gives a constantly tragic and ominous feeling (some of it also used by Herzog), and long, slow takes in b&w that obviously remind one of Tarr (but the latter’s most recent film at that time was the vastly inferior DAMNATION), Fehér very effectively draws the viewer into a kind of forensic nightmare world, where the more one pursues justice, the further the notion of it recedes. There is indeed something remarkable about the fact that this dates from the same year as TWIN PEAKS.

A murder case in the Hungarian countryside. Thick menace stretched through the air. Hymns and doom on the soundtrack, often repeated. Black and white, thunder and rain, noir to the bone. I find all of this intriguing and strangely comfortable. And removed, because the mysterious long take fragments reveal no societal/personal history or meaning. Only the trance is unshakable.
