Hukkle

Hungarian director György Pálfi's debut is a mesmerizing symphony of sight and sound that chronicles a series of mysterious interconnected events both idyllic and sinister. From an elderly man's hiccup (or hukkle) to a microscopically observed menagerie of animals, Hukkle lovingly magnifies the little moments of a summer day that usually pass unnoticed. With minimum dialogue, Hukkle brims with subtle secrets waiting to be unlocked and etches a quirky portrait of a rustic village where things are not what they seem. (jakelijan virallinen teksti)
