(2004) Kontroll.
(In Hungary with English subtitles).
THRILLER/ COMEDY/ DRAMA.
Unknown person gets killed by being pushed onto an ongoing railway assumes that it was an accident is nothing more than a backdrop to showcase a particular group of railway ticketers and their existing problems when people refuse to pay for their tolls and go in for free, who're also called Kontroll hence the name. Comedy was kind of dry and rather predictable, the drama doesn't tell a heck of alot which is supposed to be social commentary about another unglamourous low wage job and how they were coping with it is way to pretentious to be taken seriously. While I appreciate the realistic settings, I can't forgive the uncredbilty about the plot if there is one!
2 out of 4.
