“A magnum opus to end all magna opera, a dark, funny, apocalyptic allegory of the Hungarian psyche that stimulates, irritates, soothes and startles with blinding strokes of genius in equal turn.” - Derek Elley, Variety
Saturday, January 28 at 11am (SOLD OUT!) | Lauded as a masterpiece by audiences and critics alike upon its release (Susan Sontag declared she would be “glad to see it every year for the rest of my life”), and shot in stunning black and white, Béla Tarr’s slow cinema opus follows members of a defunct agricultural collective living in a post-apocalyptic landscape whose lives are altered forever when a mysterious character returns to their village. A must-see on the big screen for any cinephile (and and a feather-in-the-cap-moviegoing experience for any Tarr fan), SÁTÁNTANGÓ is presented into twelve distinct segments - designed to mimic the structure of a tango - resulting in a transfixing, spellbinding, and infinite dance.
