You have to say this for Hungary's György Pálfi: though e's just three films into his career, Pálfi has already established himself as one of the most diverse and unpredictable film makers in the world. With his first film, Hukkle, Pálfi laid out a nearly dialogue free murder mystery, punctuated only by the rhythms of the lead character's hiccups. He followed that with Taxidermia, one of the most bizarre and disturbing and completely unclassifiable films to appear on the scene in years. And for film number three? Pálfi has come up with I Am Not Your Friend, a largely improvisational and workshopped picture developed in close collaboration with the actors and shot in a style completely at odds with Pálfi's normal, highly structured style.
Sára loves Márk. They are going to have a baby. Márk also loves Sára - in his own way. Márk loves Sophie too. Just as much as Sophie loves Márk. But Sophie does not like it when she is cheated on. She prefers to be pampered. And András likes to pamper Sophie...
The film is screening as part of the ongoing Hungarian Film Week and the first trailer has just arrived. Check it out below the break!
Yes! I'm stoked for this.
How do you say, "Don't taze me, bro!" in Hungarian?
"Ne rázz meg, tesó!" or seomething like that.
