"Nobody's Daughter"
1976
Directed by Lazlo Ranody

Winner, "Best Film" Karlovy Vary Festival (1976), and the 1977 Hungarian Filmcritics Prize, this critically acclaimed film follows the tragic life of an eight-year-old orphan girl. Living under a government that sanctions money to foster parents, she finds herself shuffled from family to family; with each move she encounters increasingly brutal abuse. A beautifully acted film that explores an all too real pathos. Hungarian with English subtitles. Color.  90 minutes.
