Just the Wind
Bence Fliegauf : 2012
Csak a szél
News quickly spreads of the murder of a Romani family in a Hungarian village. The perpetrators have escaped and nobody claims to know who might have committed the crime. For another Romani family living close by, the murder only serves to confirm their latent, carefully repressed fears. Far away in Canada the head of the family decides that his wife, children and their grandfather must join him as soon as possible. Living in fear of the racist terror that surrounds them and feeling abandoned by the silent majority, the family tries to get through the day after the attack. By nightfall when darkness descends on the village the family pushes the beds closer together than usual. Yet their hope of escaping the madness proves illusory. Winner of the Peace Film Award, the Amnesty International Film Prize and the Jury Grand Prix Silver Bear at Berlin International Film Festival 2012.
