Örökbefogadás

a film by Márta Mészáros

Two women, Kata (Kati Berek) and Anna (Gyöngyvér Vígh), develop an unlikely friendship. A deep and heartwarming picture with a beautiful jazzy score by György Kovács.

If The Girl (1968) was the first film directed by a woman in Hungary, Adoption became the first ditto to win the Golden Bear in 1975. To put things in perspective: it was not until 2010 that either the Oscar for Best Director or BAFTA Award for Best Direction went to a woman — in this case, the same woman, Kathryn Bigelow.
