From Miklos Jancso

Electra has vowed revenge from the murder of her father. She waits for the return of her brother, who will exact justice.

In an awesome leap of imagination, Miklos Jancso, one of the world's great filmmakers, re-locates the classic myth on a desolate Hungarian plain. Here, the nail-biting drama plays out against the rituals of naked girls and galloping horsemen. The film is shot as a visual epic, with elaborate camera moves that are Jancso's famous signature. When Electra takes off in a red helicopter, the story catapults into the future, in an awesome master-stroke that leaves the audience breathless.

Electra, My Love is a revelation, and unlike any other film you have ever seen.
