Additional InformationFour years in the making, this exceptional film from the acclaimed Hungarian filmmaker Bela Tarr is an adaptation of a novel by thriller writer Georges Simenon. Maloin (Miroslav Krobot) leads a simple life as a railway signalman, barely registering the world around him. His life takes a sudden turn when he becomes a witness to a murder and he is forced to confront issues of morality, sin, punishment and the line between innocence and complicity. <BR><BR><BR>Exploring themes of desire, greed and manÆs indestructible longing for freedom, this hypnotic film bears the distinctive trademarks of TarrÆs universe û fluid and stunning monochrome photography, pared-down dialogue and performances (with a striking appearance by Tilda Swinton), and a hauntingly beautiful score by long-time Tarr collaborator Mihaly Vig.
