The Wednesday Child
Lili Horváth : 2015
A szerdai gyerek
History sometimes repeats itself. As a nine-year-old, Maja was abandoned by her mother and placed in an orphanage. Now it's ten years later and she keeps returning to the institution, now to visit her four-year-old son and hopes that, one day, she will be able to look after him herself. She's familiar with the home – it's where she met Krisz, her boyfriend and the father of her child. He's a young good-for-nothing who doesn't want to be bothered with any of this and would rather have his girlfriend under lock and key. Will she be able to take control of her life despite the unfavourable circumstances? It seems that Maja's self-destructive tendencies are the only obstacle preventing her from doing so. Lili Horváth's feature directorial debut was winner of the East of the West Award and FEDEORA Award when it premiered in competition at Karlovy Vary International Film Festival 2015.
