Satantango 1994
Had the luck of watching the restored version on the big screen. Amazing from start to finish. Feels more like a cinematic novel than a movie. Looking forward to experiencing it again.

What an amazing film! Manages to perfectly capture so many difficult and immensely complicated human situations. Some scenes stand out to me:
1. The one where Anders sits alone in a cafe and overhears the conversations around him. The way the camera follows some of the pedestrians to get a short glimpse into their daily lives is brilliant.
2. The cycling scene with the fire extinhuishers is so beautiful.
3. The last long take.Translated from by
