At a time of ethno-nationalist rhetoric and refugee crisis headlines, Hungarian director Roland Vranik's deft, tender third feature, offers an austere powerhouse work using mostly
nonprofessional performers. The Citizen is palpably connected to the most morally serious tradition of European cinemathe screenplay is co-written by the legendary Iván Szabowhile the movies combination of rigor and compassion beg comparison to Fassbinders Ali: Fear Eats the Soul.
