**************not recommended for under 16s***************
Sári tries to keep the family together six years after her mother's death. She takes on the role of an active, organized and burning mother in 80's VHS camera fever by beginning to film herding the lives of three of her closest male relatives, whom she feels are struggling with anxiety, loneliness or self-destructive patterns. During filming, Sári realizes that she has inherited not only her mother's ambitions as a filmmaker, but also that she wants to solve everything for others.
In the personal-sounding documentary, the succession of present-time and family archive recordings, voice messages and dreams paints a sensitive picture of how the stacking layers of the present and the past work simultaneously in our family relationships.

Bem Cinema
In January 2016, the 108-year-old Bem Cinema will reopen its doors to the public, in a new way never seen before in Hungary: as a cinema of cult and classic films (no harm!), or as the educated French say (if you know your English): as a "repertory cinema".
