Streetwalkers

Three people. One city. One long night. After being laid off from his job, Alexander, in his mid-forties, decides to leave everything behind and set off for the Adriatic in his self-built caravan. Anna, a cigarette advertising girl, has a few hours to get money for her boyfriend, who needs a bribe to play at a party. Bandit, who works as an electrician in a factory, is electrocuted during his work this evening. Our characters set off alone into the night, but their paths cross several times before they come together at the end of the film.

Directed by Bence Miklauzic, Streetwalkers leans on a strong ensemble — György Gazsó, Eszter Márkó, Péter László — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2002.
