{"product_id":"663390004357","title":"Satantango (Blu-ray)","description":"\u003cp\u003eOne of the greatest achievements in recent art house cinema and a seminal work of “slow cinema,” Sátántangó, based on the novel by László Krasznahorkai, follows the members of a humble agricultural community living in a bleak and punishing backwater after the fall of Communism. As a few of the villagers secretly conspire to take off with all of the community's annual earnings for themselves, a mysterious messiah, long thought dead, returns to the village and alters the course of everyone’s lives forever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eShot in stunning black-and-white by Gábor Medvigy and filled with exquisitely composed long takes, Sátántangó unfolds in twelve distinct movements, alternating forwards and backwards in time, echoing the structure of a tango dance. Bela Tarr’s vision, aided by longtime partner and collaborator Ágnes Hranitzky, is enthralling and his portrayal of rural Hungary beset by drunken revelry, treachery, and near-perpetual rainfall is both transfixing and uncompromising. Sátántangó has been justly lauded by critics and audiences as a masterpiece and has been restored on occasion of its 25th anniversary.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cinema 1 Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44893858529359,"sku":"663390004357","price":47.97,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0680\/2787\/5407\/files\/satan_8dc10137-fcc2-4c80-aac5-07abe66cfd29.jpg?v=1773842322","url":"https:\/\/cinema1.ca\/products\/663390004357","provider":"Cinema 1 Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
