This powerful Oscar®-nominated feature from director István Szabó (Mephisto, Father) explores complex questions of love, trust, loyalty and betrayal.
In WW2 Hungary, hard-bitten resistance fighter János and naive young mother Kata are thrown together in an attempt to escape the Nazis. Compelled to pose as husband and wife, they are forced into a strange intimacy. Terrified of discovery, the couple are wary of all those around them, and even of each other. As their individual loyalties are challenged, their relationship begins to change - calling into question the emotional certainties of their normal lives, and forcing them to re-assess who they really trust.
Considered amongst Szabó’s very best work and yet, although Oscar®-nominated for Best Foreign Language Film, never before released on home video anywhere in the world, Confidence is riveting from start to finish and a true discovery in world cinema.
This is the World Premiere of the film on any home video format and the DVD features the film presented from a new high-definition restoration of the film approved by the director, plus an interview featurette with director István Szabó, produced and broadcast by Turner Classic Movies, and new essay by author Catherine Portuges.
