Syrian refugee Aryan’s attempt to cross the Hungarian border becomes an ill-fated journey. He is shot several times by the police during the incident, but no one could foresee the consequences: The young man gains the ability to levitate. His new powers set in motion a series of misfortunes in the world around him. Personal and systemic corruption, a loss of faith, and the insecurity of a constant lack of money lead a burnt-out police officer named László and corrupt Dr. Stern into ever more extreme situations as they drag the naïve Aryan down with them. “I wanted to adopt a cinematic language that reflected the chaos, the tension, and the pressure that I feel every day in Budapest... I didn’t want it to let up even for a second,” says director Kornél Mundruczó. (source: Karlovy Vary IFF)
