On Body and Soul (2017) - 116 min

Country: Hungary
Director: Ildikó Enyedi
Cast: Géza Morcsányi & Alexandra Borbély.
Endre is finance manager at an urban abattoir and Maria joins the office as new government quality inspector. Their personalities differ, but something else is common between them. When someone stoles the supply of animal from the slaughterhouse, their relationship status also starts to change.
On Body and Soul starts and ends with a dream. I don't know how they come up with such interesting concepts. The scene that I liked the most will be the psychologist interviewing Endre and the way he tries to justify his actions were nicely executed by the director, Enyedi. The visuals also look rich especially the shots of the deer in the forest. This romance story will be incomplete without solid chemistry. Both Alexandra Bórbely & Géza Morcsányi handles the part with ease and they look solid in the screen. Overall, It's an intriguing movie for me and watched twice without getting bored.
Verdict: Great
