About This Movie

Pipás (2023) weaves a haunting narrative set against the stark backdrop of the Hungarian Great Plain. The animation style feels almost gritty, enhancing the unsettling themes of violence and trauma. This isn't your typical crime story—Pipás, the killer, is confronted not just by the women seeking his aid but by his own tormented past as a survivor of abuse. The pacing is deliberate, allowing moments of reflection amid the tension. There's a haunting quality in the way his memories manifest, almost as characters themselves.

It's a distinct exploration of morality and retribution, each frame echoing with the weight of its themes.
