PROGRAME ARCHIVE: FILM

The protagonists of this film are Kapa and Pepe, two gravediggers who spend their time sitting on a bench at the cemetery, making fun of the surrounding world. Simultaneously, they imagine themselves as bankers, lawyers, newly fledged rich men, bankrupt businessmen, thieves, and terrorists. One thing is certain - they are invincible... This is a highly appraised film by Miklós Jancso, shown at the Berlin film festival in 1999 (as part of the program under the title International Forum of New Cinema). It won the international film critics’ award Gene Moskowitz at the 30th Annual Hungarian Film Week.
