For the “Q” to arose … the film will tell the ‘A” …“What if they are watching us, just as we are watching them? And what would you do if you wanted to connect with a being, but you don’t have a common language?” These are the questions that arise in the recently released trailer for Ildikó Enyedi’s film Silent Friend . The latest work by the Golden Bear-winning and Oscar-nominated director of Body and Soul debuted at the 82nd Venice Film Festival and has since won numerous awards. The Hungarian-German-French co-production, supported by the National Film Institute, was rated 100% by Rotten Tomatoes, which summarizes film reviews. There were sold-out screenings in 26 cinemas in 18 cities in Hungary, so nearly 3,500 people have now seen Silent Friend , which will be released in domestic cinemas on January 29, 2026, distributed by Mozinet.
Six awards, including the Marcello Mastroianni Award for Best New Actor (Luna Wedler) … Venice International Film Festival 2025.
