Two people fall deeply in love despite being married to others, confronting a painful dilemma. Set in Hungary, the film shows a society that, while comfortable, suffers a “private‑life disorder” touching urban middle‑class and rural lower‑class citizens. Their bond unravels, not from spite but from the inertia of a nation that has lost direction.
