Oh, Bloody Life

Directed by Péter Bacsó

With Dorottya Udvaros, Zoltán Bezerédy, András Kern, Ödön Rubold and László Szacsvay

The Hungarian Oh, Bloody Life reflects on the heavy emotional toll taken by the repressive Stalin regime. Dorotya Udvaros plays a young actress from a high-born family. The government bias against persons of wealth threatens to destroy her career before it begins. As a final blow, she is threatened with deportation. The exasperation inherent in the film's title is only the tip of the iceberg.
