All Against All
DocumentaryHistory
This richly illustrated historical documentary investigates the mechanism of nationalist feelings that radicalise. It shows how fascism was on the rise even a decade before the founding of the NSB, due to a number of anti-democratic initiatives led by a millionaire with a predilection for one-legged women, a market vendor, a cleric, and an artist. Historians, writers and collectors of fascist curios reveal how an initially marginal and fragmented movement grew into a radical populist party.

One of the darkest chapters of the communist dictatorship of the 1950s was the Hortobágy labour camps, where thousands of people were deported without any trial, mostly families living on the western and southern borders. The complex of institutions, which was established in the farmland of the lowlands in strict secrecy, existed until 1953, but even after that it was not openly discussed. The film is based on real documents and recollections, which make the story real and true to life, told from the point of view of the thirteen-year-old son of a displaced family. Andris's family is summoned one morning by the ÁVH. An evacuation order has been issued and the whole family must leave their home.
