"How much further do we have to go?"
Rural Romania, and Katalin Varga's (Hilda Péter) husband sends her away calling her a whore. She leaves with their son, telling the child they are going to visit her mother who is very ill. Along the journey the child questions what is happening and we learn why the husband is shocked enough to banish Katalin, as she in turn looks for answers.
A story of vengeance and how such things will never bring redemption. An air of menace and foreboding seeps through this film, giving a chill to otherwise idyllic rural scenes.
