- DirectorMiklós JancsóStarsJózsef MadarasDaniel OlbrychskiMárk ZalaAllegory of the suppression of the 1919 revolution and the advent of fascism in Hungary; in the countryside, a unit of the revolutionary army spares the life of father Vargha, a fanatical priest.

- DirectorMiklós JancsóStarsAndrás KozákSergey NikonenkoBéla BarsiIn the final days of WWII, a seventeen-year-old boy wanders the countryside.
