A journalist attempts to track down his scientist father in this trippy adaptation of the Stanislaw Lem science fiction classic, His Master's Voice. Péter (Csaba Polgár) is a thirty-something on the cusp of fatherhood, but an incredibly fraught relationship with his own Dad sends him on a journey around the world to try and track down the man who disappeared decades ago, leaving Péter and his brother Zsolt (Ádám Fekete) to wonder what became of him. What begins as a simple story of a man looking for his father, and by extension his own roots, quickly morphs into an incredibly complex conspiracy thriller in this bizarre adaptation of an already complex literary work.

Mindörökké
Director: György Pálfi
Writer: György Pálfi, Zsofia Ruttkay
We’ve been waiting a long time for Hungarian auteur György Pálfi‘s ambitious project The Voice to transpire, but as that develops, he continues to work on other features. Though he’s perhaps still best known for his 2006 sophomore feature, Taxidermia, he won Best Director at Karlovy Vary in 2014 for the equally bizarre Free Fall (which we hopes picks up Us distribution someday). In mid-2015, Palfi opened an Indiegogo for post-production of his latest, Mindörökké (For Ever), based on a novel by Sandor Tar about a post-apocalyptic Hungarian-Ukrainian village. Knowing Pálfi’s particular visual flair and frequency of bizarre narratives, we can’t wait to see what he has in store for us.
Cast: Julia Ubrankovics, Tamas Polgar, Attila Menszator-Heresz
Production Co.: Kmh Film, Sunpunks Entertainment
U.S. Distributor: Rights available Tbd (domestic/international)
Release Date: Palfi has yet to present in Berlin,...
