Satantango jellemzők
In the darkening embers of a communist utopia, life in a desolate Hungarian village has come to a virtual standstill. But when the charismatic Irimiás -long thought dead- returns to the commune, the villagers fall under his spell. The Devil has arrived in their midst.
Irimiás will divide and rule: his arrival heralds the beginning of a period of violence and greed for the villagers as he sets about swindling them out of a fortune that would allow them to escape the emptiness and futility of their existence. He soon takes on a messianic aspect, as he plays on the fears of the townsfolk and a series of increasingly brutal events unfold.
Satantango follows the villagers as they are exploited and taken in by Irimiás, as they drink and stumble their way toward the gradual realization of their mistake and ultimate demise. In its measured prose and long sentences, Satantango is nothing short of a literary masterpiece, a formal meditation on death and avarice, human fallibility and faith.
