The late Béla Tarr’s swan song strips his previous work down to its most elemental state. As captured in the director’s trademark long takes, an old man and his adult daughter live on almost nothing. Their beleaguered cart horse refuses to work. Their well dries up. How can they continue? How can anyone? An unaccountably moving cinema experience.
2011 Bela Tarr 1.66:1 B&W DCP 155 min.
