The Fifth Seal

“Let Both The Guilty and the Innocent Live In Fear”

In a Budapest bar in 1944, a watchmaker, a book seller and a carpenter sit drinking with the owner when a stranger joins their table. Then Gyuricza (Lajos Őze) puts a hypothetical to the room: what would you do if you could choose to be tyrant or victim? Zoltán Fábri keeps the four men talking while the city outside is at war, and what grows between the watchmaker and the book seller (László Márkus) is the kind of trust that only forms when you answer honestly.
