Synopsis by Dan Pavlides
Andras (Denes Dobrei) is released from prison after serving nearly three years for a petty crime in this somber melodrama. He comes home to discover his wife Eva (Erika Ozsda) has been jailed for assault when she defended herself from a potential rapist. With the couple's two children in foster homes, Andras battles the corrupt bureaucracy in an attempt to regain custody of his family. He tries to bribe a social worker into writing a fictitious report that could assist in the return of his wife and children.
