BANISHED by her husband and her village, Katalin Varga is left with no other choice than to set out on a quest to find the real father of her son, Orbán.

Taking Orbán with her under another pretence, Katalin travels through the Carpathians where she decides to reopen a sinister chapter from her past and take revenge.

The hunt leads her to a place she prayed 11 years prior she would never set foot in again.

This gripping Romanian language drama is the first feature from British director Peter Strickland.
