Free Fall

Jun 1—Jun 3, 2024
    Part of
  • BAM Film 2024
  • and
  • I Will Not Be Your Friend: the films of György Pálfi
Directed by György Pálfi (2014)
With Piroska Molnár, Miklós Benedek, Tamás Jordán

In this masterful embodiment of Pálfi’s fluidity of vision, a woman jumps from the roof of her Budapest apartment block and plunges into seven different microcosms of contemporary Hungarian society. Ranging in style from sci-fi to social realism, Free Fall glimpses the lives of a hyper-hygienic couple, a woman who wants her baby put back inside her, and a boy who is seemingly the only one able to see the terrifyingly full-sized bull inside his flat.
