BLACKland

5.0 / 10 2006 2h 23mNR Hungarian
Comedy

Storyline

The film is a stage play hybrid showcasing dark and absurd sketches based on contemporary Hungarian news of the 2000's with campy, senseless musical interludes in-between. Highly experimental in nature that - like Marmite - will split its' crowd into ones that'll love it and others that'll loathe it. There's no middle grounds here. The topics included are: The Hungarian Olympians' doping scandal, political terrorism, the national elections... and more.

A staggering achievement of craft and ambition. Árpád Schilling's vision lands with breathtaking precision.

Every frame feels alive. BLACKland is the rare release that takes its audience seriously.
