What does a passionate director do when the source of state film funding goes dry? He spends three years sitting in the cutting room and creates one thousand and one forms of love out of more than 450 canonical masterpieces of the world cinema. The meta-story of the relationship between a man and a woman includes all the necessary stages including courting, engagement, honeymoon, infidelity, conception, parting and death, thus posing an intellectual challenge for cinema buffs as well as pure delight for everybody who is interested in the topic of love. The acclaimed Hungarian director, Geőrgy Pálfi, already skilfully experimented with his festival hit, Taxidermy (2006). This time, however, he explores the sophisticated nuances of composition instead of a provoking plot. (Febiofest)
