Amor fati

Director Sophie Kotanyi Composer Georg Klein Cast Helga Lehner, Uwe Müller
138' - 1997 - Documentary - Dialogue: Hungarian, German
This is the story of the director's family, told by her siblings and parents who belonged to a group of intellectuals, philosophers and fine artists in Budapest. Hungary after the war, Stalinism and the 1956 revolution (including archive footage), history told from a personal point of view. After the escape to Brussels the family breaks apart due to the pressures of emigration. Each one gives a different perspective on the inner dynamics of the family. A condensed, factual tale about the disintegration of a family in exile.
