A Casa Sob os Rochedos

Hungarian story of Ferenc, a Soviet prisoner-of-war, returning to his village after World War II to find his wife dead and his son being raised by her hunchbacked sister Teri. She has long unrequited feelings for him but he falls for and marries the beautiful Zsuzsa, a woman with a past. When Teri seeks to continue living with, and coming between them, the tensions in the small house between the three of them build until they spill over into violence.

Well shot, delicately acted and intelligently made, "The House Under the Rocks" is a seemingly simple but darkly nuanced tale that deserves its high reputation within Hungarian cinema, built upon eternally-relevant realities of love and life.
