Set in the politically fraught autumn of 1936, this mystery follows hard-boiled reporter Zsigmond Gordon as he probes the murder of a young prostitute. Against the backdrop of the funeral of a fascist-leaning Hungarian prime minister, Gordon follows clues that take him into the city's underbelly - a world of pornography and fixers, boxers and brothels, powerful crime syndicates and secret Communist cells - and all the way to the highest echelons of power. (Chicago International Film Festival)
