Lauded as a masterpiece by audiences and critics alike upon its release (Susan Sontag declared she would be “glad to see it every year for the rest of my life”), and shot in stunning black and white, Béla Tarr’s slow cinema opus follows members of a defunct agricultural collective living in a post-apocalyptic landscape whose lives are altered forever when a mysterious character returns to their village. SÁTÁNTANGÓ is presented into twelve distinct segments - designed to mimic the structure of a tango - resulting in a transfixing, spellbinding, and infinite dance.
