Directed by Oscar-winning filmmaker László Nemes (Son of Saul), Orphan is a visually stunning historical drama set in Hungary.

In 1957 Budapest, after the uprising against the Communist regime, a young Jewish boy, Andor — raised by his mother with idealised tales of his deceased father — has his world turned upside down when a brutish man appears, claiming to be his true father. 

Channelling 20th century neorealist cinema, Orphan offers a haunting and deeply moving exploration of identity and memory, tracing the fragile process of rebuilding a sense of self against the shadow of history.
