    • Synopsis
    • The 1956 Revolution has fallen. Terror reigns. Appointed by the Soviet, the new Prime Minister – a very paranoid János Kádár – orders that each and every National Defense officer’s loyalty should be tested by new and rigorous directives.
      JUNG (30s) is a super-ambitious cultural defense officer living under the cover of a private teacher. Jung’s so-called conspiracy apartment is a safe place to meet agents and informers on a regular basis. Jung’s task is to gather information and forward it to his superiors.
      MARKÓ (50s) is Jung’s direct superior, and also his only friend. Now, Markó, a war hero and a legend amongst the officers, is ordered to monitor Jung’s apartment and activities for a day according to the Kádár directives, testing his friend’s loyalty to the new regime.
      The routine surveillance takes a wild turn when Markó uncovers disturbing secrets in Jung’s life. Secrets that can easily destroy the careers of both men.
