Video Blues

The film is a crime story embedded in a love affair with two brothers in the focus. Gábor lives in Paris, János lives in Budapest with his wife, their once common love and their child. After many years of silence Gábor gives a sign of life through a video cassette. He also sends a camera - this is how they start corresponding. Their messages become ruder and ruder, and suppressed tension and jealousy between the two brothers breaks through to the surface. János begins to suspect that four years ago his brother returned to visit Judit and that their child has really been conceived by him. Upon Gábors threatening message, Judit travels to Paris with the child. János follows them. Judit, seeing that Gábor is only interested in fanatic fraternal war, breaks up with him. Gábor sets a suicidal trap to his brother, documented by video: it is János who, unwillingly, pulls the trigger. (Verleiher-Text)
