Control

(Kontroll, 2003)

Directed by: Nimród Antal

PHOTOGRAPHY: Gyula Pados

Synopsis:

This is a film with a dark atmosphere, shot entirely in the Budapest subway. Subway travelers are terrorized by two rival gangs of ticket controllers who are searching for an anonymous murderer. A drunk driver, a woman dressed in a bear costume, a hooded killer who throws his victims under trains, happy tourists, and various bums are just some of the subway’s gaudy “population”.
