This film by Hungarian filmmaker Márta Mészáros has a simple plot. A girl who works at a factory meets a university student at a college party. At first she lies to him about her position and tells him she is a student also. Even when she tells him the truth he would rather have her continue on with the deception. The social commentary is the best thing about the movie.
Now I'm not the type who is usually fussy about video quality but with this picture it's a different story. White on black and white subtitles aren't a good idea. I couldn't read more about half the subtitles of this movie. This takes away from the enjoyment of the movie.
