Film Review: ‘Moszkva tér’ (‘Moscow Square’)

It’s 1989 in Budapest. Change is brewing. Political unrest is about to capsize the entire system in which you live, and very soon communism will be replaced with democracy. For anyone paying attention, this is an historic time.

Except, you’re 18. And you’re not paying attention at all. You care more about crashing the best parties, passing your exams, graduating high school, forging some train tickets to the west, getting a girlfriend, and also possibly figuring out what to do with the rest of your life.

Such is the case for young Petya in the 2001 Hungarian film ‘Moszkva Tér,’ a coming-of-age story about that very special time when adulthood is just on the horizon. Petya and his friends are more interested in other antics, like sneaking into the Gellért Baths at night and bribing the security guard to let them play in the waves. This film isn’t just a comedy. It’s a slice of life, a portrait of the Hungarians who weren’t leading the charge for transformation, the Hungarians who were just living their normal, everyday lives while history happened around them.

You can see signs of political change in the film, although they’re generally subtle. Televisions play in the background, with journalists reporting on the reburial of 1956 Hungarian revolutionaries like Imre Nagy. This became emblematic of the regime change, but that doesn’t really matter to these soon-to-be high school graduates (“Who the hell is Imre Nagy?” one student asks).

The film has certain yawn-and-you’ll-miss-it but telling conversations, like when Petya informs his grandmother that he’d like to become a taxi driver: “A private taxi. Earns a lot,” Petya says.

“But those who go private…,” grandma says, and then cuts herself off with, “You can’t be serious!”

And then there’s the history exam ordeal.

“Given the evolution of the political situation, no history after 1945 will be featured this year in the exam questions,” says the teacher, holding up their history book.

“Whatever is in here is obviously highly reflective of reality, but… maybe not 100% so,” he adds in a deadpan voice, which might be among my favorite lines of the film.

At this time, you can already see the Western influences in Budapest. “Relax” by Frankie Goes to Hollywood plays on the television and radio. A Pepsi sign hangs over Moszkva Tér. Petya’s friend Kigler “borrows” a Porsche from his car salesman dad.

But the viewer is more invested in whether Petya will finally get with Zsófi, whether the students will get away with cheating on their literature exams, and what these kids will end up doing after high school. It’s also legitimately funny, and an amusing ride.

This is the third or fourth time I’ve watched this film (a pirated copy was first gifted to me on a USB drive by a Hungarian guy I very briefly dated, but that’s a story for another day). It’s a great way to track my Hungarian language progress — I understand more every time I watch it — and I continue to love the movie itself.

It’s funny to think that this film was set in 1989, after my dad moved to the U.S. from Hungary — in fact, this film took place during the exact month when my mom left Poland. My parents are about 10 years older than the characters in this film, but I can imagine they might still be able to identify with Petya and his friends.

In may ways Moszkva Tér represents the changes that Budapest has seen.  Moszkva Tér — or Moscow Square, where the guys hang out — no longer exists. I mean, it does. But these days, it’s called Széll Kálmán Tér. During the communist era, many roads, squares, parks, and other public places were named for Soviet-related things. There was Lenin Boulevard (now Erzsébet and Teréz Boulevard), Stalin Avenue (now the famous Andrássy Avenue, which leads to the city park), and Marx Square (now Nyugati Square, and home to a very un-Marxian shopping mall). 

In fact, the name Moszkva Tér only switched to Széll Kálmán Tér less than a decade ago, in 2011. Budapest locals still call it Moszkva Tér all the time. The square also looks very different nowadays. While watching the film, I could point to the buildings where the McDonalds and Starbucks would eventually be in 2020. And so it goes. Petya and his friends didn’t have to go to the west after all. The west came to them.

If you want to watch ‘Moszkva Tér,’ or watch another Hungarian film with English subtitles, you can find the full list of comedies here . The National Film Institute of Hungary has put these films online to watch for free until May 10. But if there’s one film you absolutely must watch from this list, I whole-heartedly recommend this one.

Feel free to read my reviews for ‘Csinibaba’ and ‘A Tanú’ as well.

The 10 Best Iranian Films of The 21st Century

The advent of sharing platforms and greater access to online media the world over means that cinefiles are paying much closer attention to Middle Eastern cinema than ever before. While Dariush Mehrjui’s 1969 masterpiece The Cow is often labelled as single-handedly pioneering the Iranian New Wave, nothing can compare to the worldwide acclaim that accompanied Asghar Farhadi’s Oscar-winning drama A Separation.

Just as the rest of the planet is discovering Persian film, Iranian filmmakers are also setting their sights further afield. With work set in Italy and Japan already under his belt, Abbas Kiarostami recently voiced a desire to shoot a movie in Cuba, so enthralled is he with the culture. With borders becoming increasingly blurred, it will not be long before the styles of Iranian and other cinemas of the world begin to bleed into one another.

As filmmakers find ways to skirt around the censors, their own styles are emerging thick and fast. Some shoot under the cover of darkness, others find ways to work with actors banned from performing, while others break films into segments to avoid strict licensing laws. Even when banned from making films completely, directors such as Jafar Panahi find ways to practice their art. Contemporary Iranian film is truly a tour de force.

Let’s take a look at some highlights from the 21st century.

1. Under the Skin of the City (Rakhshan Bani-Etemad, 2001)

A quietly political drama, this moving film focuses on a family’s endeavours to escape the circumstances of its own class restrictions. Winner of the Karlovy Vary and Moscow International Film Festivals, Under the Skin of the City takes a compassionate look at the way families are forced to conduct their lives under dire straits.

One Tehran family serves as a symbol of Iran’s working class, and we follow them in their efforts to stay afloat financially and emotionally. Middle-aged matriarch Touba is forced to work in a textile factory due to her husband’s invalid status, while her eldest son Abbas becomes the main breadwinner through his work at a clothing wholesaler.

Just as Touba suppresses her own exhaustion in an attempt to put on a positive front, Abbas longs to move to Tokyo to earn enough to pursue a relationship with a coworker. The rest of the family also have their own crosses to bear; Touba’s younger son Ali is often on the wrong side of the law due to his participation in student demonstrations, while daughter Hamideh is continually on the run from her physically abusive husband.

Bani-Etemad’s background in documentary film is most evident in her decision not to gloss over her depiction of the streets of Tehran – we are shown the shabby areas as well as the more upscale shopping districts. More importantly, however, is the dignity she brings out in her protagonists. Each caught in their private traps, their various plights are handled with sensitivity and a sense of determination, even if we ultimately feel that Touba and her children are doomed.

This film offers viewers a realistic glimpse into the lives of the working class, and provides a social commentary on how people struggle to maintain a sense of normality when the odds are against them.

2. Iron Island (Mohammad Rasoulof, 2005)

An abandoned oil tanker becomes the principal location in this unusual film, and serves as a home for several destitute southerners. The commune-like existence they all share is run by “Captain” Nemat, who, no matter how benevolent a leader he is, must be obeyed by the residents on board. Young newcomer Ahmed realizes that there are rules on the ‘iron island’ when his pursuit of a pretty girl must be conducted under the cover of darkness. The strictly religious community also adds a layer of tension to life aboard.

The tanker’s self-sufficiency is evident in its numerous quarters, shops, schools, and even bakeries. However, despite its strengths, the vessel is slowly sinking as Nemat sells its parts one by one for profit. When the tanker’s owner announces his plans to scrap the ship completely, Nemat’s voice of concern is just as much about his own financial state as it is about the residents’ welfare.

While the ship can be viewed as metaphor for Iran’s politics, this would be far too dismissive of the tenacity of its inhabitants, whose shared home brings them together to form a loyal, comradely community. Despite Nemat’s monetary interests, it is apparent that he is emotionally invested in the lives of the people. The film is therefore not a simple black and white portrayal of capitalists versus communists; nor does it make any other formulaic contrasts.

Ultimately, Rasoulof’s film focuses on trust, and where it should be placed. Watching the citizens of the iron island go about their daily lives is a joy, and provides a heart-warming view of communal life.

3. The Willow Tree (Majid Majidi, 2005)

What if a man blind since birth was suddenly given the gift of sight? This is the central premise of this beautiful, gripping drama from Majidi, best known for Children of Heaven, and more recently, Muhammad: Messenger of God.

Youssef has been visually impaired for over thirty eight years, but this has not stopped him from carving out an idyllic existence for himself; a successful literature lecturer at a university, he shares a beautiful home with a loving wife and daughter. However, when a bout of illness sends Youssef to France for treatment, he discovers that there might just be a chance to restore his vision.

Majidi’s astonishing ability to capture intense emotion is evident in such scenes as when Youssef catches a glimpse of the world for the first time in decades – an ant trundling across a window pane elicits child-like glee, while the sound of birdsong is used to poignantly capture the beauty Youssef experiences in his unseeing life.

As Youssef familiarizes himself with the visible world, he becomes increasingly distant from his previous life, to the point of becoming infatuated with another woman. The film is very much a metaphor for ‘seeing’ what we have to be grateful for; while Youssef becomes enamoured with materialistic preoccupations to the point of obsession and selfishness, he loses focus on the things that made his life so blissful before.

From time to time, a film enables its audience to re-examine ideals and view its surroundings in new ways; in this film, an answered prayer for vision becomes a curse on a man’s personal life. Majidi shows us how to find beauty while confined to pitch black, as well as appreciate what we have, despite its shortcomings.

4. Santouri (Dariush Mehrjui, 2007)

Most likely due to its subject matter, this film has never been theatrically released in Iran. With themes of drug addiction, divorce, and homelessness, Mehrjui does not shy away from taboo topics, and it is no coincidence that “playing the Santour” is a colloquial Persian term for injecting heroin.

The narrative is told partially through flashback, and we learn that the once promising santour player Ali is now a washed up addict, performing at weddings for drugs rather than money, with only memories of his former life to sustain him. Whether or not he can find redemption remains a question mark for a large portion of the film.

At its heart, the film’s story is one of a downfall – of Ali’s career, his spiralling heroin addiction, and his failed marriage. We learn of how he meets and loses his wife Hanieh, and how a brutal act of violence can become a heavily disguised form of salvation.

Handheld shots and jump cuts lend a jerky, erratic realism to the film’s events, and serve to mirror Ali’s own shaky grasp of control in his own life. Ali, played with bitter conviction by actor-musician Bahram Radan, spits venom at contemporary Iran, but it is unclear whether the film mirrors his criticism. In Santouri, people suffer, but whether it is due to their own flawed personalities or the society that surrounds them is debatable.

5. About Elly (Asghar Farhadi, 2009)

Winner of the Silver Bear at the Berlin International Film Festival, Farhadi’s prelude to A Separation demonstrates his masterful ability to tell compelling stories of contemporary middle class Iran.

When a group of young friends and their young children take a trip to the Caspian sea, they take their daughter’s school teacher Elly along with them (Taraneh Alidoosti) in the hopes of setting her up with Ahmad, a recent divorcee over from Germany. The pair laugh along with the group’s jokes at their expense, and it seems that a genuine attraction develops between them. However, it is not immediately clear what Elly’s feelings are for Ahmad, or if she is even looking for anyone at all.

The tone of the film shifts considerably when a terrifying incident takes place on the waterfront, throwing the group’s gentle dynamic into panic and disorder. What captures our attention is not just the accident itself, but how quickly the young friends’ easy camaraderie is replaced by suspicion, rage, and accusation.

The film’s golden hues of the first half soon give way to subdued shades of oceanic blue, a visible interpretation of the characters’ sudden despair. The camera also serves to mirror the emotions of the characters, with languid, lazy sweeps depicting idyllic waterside play giving way to frenetic, darting zooms as panic descends on the group.

From the film’s jubilant, carefree beginning to the more somber chapters, interaction between the characters remains fresh and convincing; characters laugh and joke, mischievously pull open toilet doors on one another, and genuinely seem to enjoy spending time together. The performances seem almost improvised, such are their authenticity.

Farhadi’s talent lies in his ability to bring out natural, easy communication with his cast. It is noteworthy that Shahab Hosseini, who plays the gregarious Ahmad, went on to feature in Farhadi’s Academy Award winner A Separation.

How could you guys miss Jafar Panahi & Majid Majidi movies in the list??

Did u even read the list? The Willow Tree by Majid Majidi is no 3 in the list on the very first page.

How can you talk about Iranian cinema without mentioning Abbas Kiarostami? His work is essential for the understanding of the modern cinema that has been made in Iran.

Well, that is because he didn’t make a lot of films in Iran in recent years but rather in Europe and Japan.

Ten was made in 2002

Oh yeah. I forgot about that one.

Oh, what about Offside ? That is a great film.

I was scrolling down to suggest Offside.

and Taxi Teheran, also from Panahi

A few that could’ve been included: Turtles Can Fly, At Five in the Afternoon, The White Meadows…
