Confidence
Directed by István Szabó
Produced by Objektív Film, Mafilm
A tense, intimate wartime drama about two strangers forced into a pretend marriage who must confront their prejudices while hiding from Nazi persecution.
Janos and Kata are thrown together during the Second World War and forced to pose as husband and wife to hide from the Nazis. The intensity and suffocating intimacy of their new relationship and the circumstances in which they find themselves, forces them to confront past prejudices and assumptions and challenge what they truly believe.
