Grandfathers and Revolutions

PLOT

A young man in his early twenties living abroad wants to explore his grandfather's past with naive enthusiasm, focusing on his political role in the 1950s. Even from the perspective of so many years later, Péter is still moved by the ideology and purity of the revolution, so he confronts his own grandfather, the former prime minister, with a series of relentless questions about his compromises, servility, and indifferent excuses. A particularly shocking part of the film is when Péter, acting as an intermediary, seeks answers from his grandfather through a tape recording of a victim of the 1956 revolution who fled to Australia.
