If films such as Hungry's Delta from Kornél Mundruczó, Bosnia's Snow from Aida Begic and the slew of Romanian offerings are any indication – better infrastructure is equal to burgeoning new cinema trends from Central and Eastern Europe.

With nature overwhelming taking over the frame, comparisons to Terrence Malick's work are inevitable and justified for this Hungarian feature by Kornel Mundruczó. This mid day screening (one day late) screening for Delta caught me by surprise - ugliness and beauty co-exist here. In this film and I imagine in far away scapes like the setting of this picture, such issues like rape and incest come without consequences - almost normalized course of human nature. The ugliness is then outmatched by great cinematography capturing the weather patterns, canoed surroundings, long grass.
