Strangled - Sunday 18th March 5pm



Strangled is a drama, based on real-life events, in which a series of sexual murders take place in a small Hungarian town. Set initially just after the Hungarian uprising in 1956 a suspect is quickly convicted and imprisoned. However ten years later it becomes clear to the original detective and the prosecutor that this a serial killing (despite being told "there are no serial killers in Hungary"). Reopening the case involves admitting that Soviet era justice was fallible and that is not politically acceptable…

Winner of nine Hungarian film awards last year.
