Feels Like Home (3 Stars)


This is the third film in the Stuttgart Nights Festival.

A woman is kidnapped while standing in the street. Two men grab her and bundle her into a car. She wakes up tied and gagged in a bare room, with only a chair and a bed. A man tells her she's his sister, and her real name is Szilvi, not Rita. He only allows her to walk around the house when she accepts that she's his sister. She even begins to suspect it might be true, until she's shown photos of Szilvi which obviously aren't her.

It's a fascinating film, maybe too slow in parts, but with a serious message. Despite giving it a low rating, I'd like to see it again.
