Ádám Breier's portrait film about László Krasznahorkai
After the publication of his new novel, László Krasznahorkai visits his hometown, Gyula. While visiting places and people we have not seen for a long time, the author invites us to recall the past, and in the process it becomes clear how Krasznahorkai's art and real life are connected.

Efter publiceringen av sin nya roman besöker László Krasznahorkai sin hemstad, Gyula. När han besöker platser och människor som vi inte sett på länge, uppmanar författaren oss att minnas det förflutna, och i processen blir det tydligt hur Krasznahorkais konst och verkliga liv hänger ihop.

László Krasznahorkai is a mysterious knight of contemporary literature, or, as Susan Sontag described him; the Hungarian master of the apocalypse. He won the Kossuth Prize in Hungary and was also the recipient of the Man Booker Prize.

"László Krasznahorkai is the 'contemporary master of the apocalypse' as Susan Sontag described him. We discussed what I could show of him if I were to make a portrait film. Whatever I asked, his answer was no. That is how this film has begun."
Adam Breier, director.
