The documentary presents a lesser known, yet very important scene of the retribution that followed the 1956 revolution and fight for independence, the Kisfogház (Small Prison) through the reminiscences of the one-time victims. People sentenced to death for political reasons were executed in the courtyard of the prison. Three of the protagonists of this documentary escaped death by hanging in the last minute, however, many other prisoners were murdered.

Judit Ember became a person who can see due to the persecution she experienced in her childhood. Still, she herself remained unseen. She and her films were banned. She was an artist and sociologist. She saw the world as life, not as a subject. She sensed the suffering of the world, but always through the suffering of the people. Her body of work teaches us that taking the unaccustomed path is the only way to challenge human difficulties. Asia Dér gives an exciting and punctual film about Judit Ember, about a director who never gave up honor neither as an artist nor as a person. The film is seeking an answer to the most difficult question what is the price of artistic truth? How was someone able to make films in the 70s and 80s in a way that they are more actual now than ever?

After the revolution of 1956, hundreds of thousands of Hungarians left their home country to escape political retaliation and Soviet oppression. Most of them ended up in Austrian refugee camps, and nations all around the world started collecting donations and finding various ways to help them. The stories of Hungarians who moved to the USA, the UK, Sweden and to other European countries are well known - but only a few people have heard that at Christmas 1956, a small Nordic country, Iceland also took part in the rescue mission. On a Red Cross airplane, 52 Hungarians arrived in Reykjavík at the end of the year. The film "Shelter in the North" tells their story, with the help of witnesses and historians, also showing how the rebellion out in distant Budapest was perceived in Iceland and why was it an important issue for Icelanders at the time.
