The Day before Yesterday

Directed by Péter Bacsó

With Éva Igó, Károly Nemcsák, Tamás Tóth, György Dörner and Marianna Moór

In 1947 Hungary, Dorottya is expelled from school for possessing Communist literature and joins a party cell to remain near her lover, only to fall for and marry the group’s leader. After the Communist takeover, her husband vanishes in a political purge, leaving her to suspect her former lover played a role in his disappearance. Now a disillusioned factory cleaner, she is forced to confront her past and face a bleak future alone under the rising Stalinist regime.
