Directed by György Pálfi (2002)

A mesmerizing, wordless exploration of rural life, Hukkle is a bold and visually striking experiment in storytelling. Set in a tranquil village, the film weaves a tapestry of seemingly mundane moments—an old man struggling with hiccups on a bench, a drunken youth snoring on a cart, women sewing in the dressmaker’s shop, and a beekeeper tending to his hives. Beneath the serene surface, however, a strange tension lingers. A cinematic puzzle that renounces dialogue in favor of the quiet language of observation, this film is a captivating journey into the heart of a community—and the secrets it may be hiding.
