Delta (2008)
Keeping it in the family…
Life in a small, rural Hungarian village deep in the heart of the Danube Delta is quietly tough. The inhabitants make their living as best they can, abiding by strict traditions passed down through generations. Suddenly, into this peace like a tidal wave comes a young man (Lakjo), returning home after making his fortune in the big city. He has been away so long that he has never met his sister (Toth), a timid girl living under the strict control of her stepfather. The young man has a dream of building a timber house in the middle of the marsh and, sensing a freedom she has never known, his sister soon decides to help him. As the sibling strangers grow ever closer, their relationship causes ripples of gossip in the village, and tensions rise until they reach a tragic breaking point.
