Árva (2025)

豆知識

Orphan is a 2025 historical drama film directed by László Nemes and co-written by Nemes and Clara Royer. Set in the aftermath of the failed Hungarian uprising against the Communist regime in Budapest, it follows Andor, a young Jewish boy in search of his missing father, unveiling instead the truth of his mother's survival during the Holocaust.

Production

The film is directed by László Nemes. As with his previous films, Sunset (2018) and Son of Saul (2015), Nemes co-wrote the script with Clara Royer. It is produced by Ildiko Kemeny and Ferenc Szale for Pioneer Pictures, alongside Mike Goodridge for the UK's Good Chaos, Alexander Rodnyansky of AR Content, and Gregory Jankilevitsch of Mid March Media. The cast is led by Bojtorján Barabas, Grégory Gadebois and Andrea Waskovics.

Principal photography took place in Budapest over ten weeks, concluding in September 2024. It's Nemes' third feature film collaboration with cinematographer Mátyás Erdély, who shot the film in 35 mm.

The story is loosely based on Nemes' own father's childhood memories in post-war Budapest, specially his search for his biological father shortly after the failed Hungarian Revolution in a Soviet-occupied Hungarian People's Republic.
