“Love. A Woman Caught Between Care Work and Political Resistance”
The Hungarian People’s Republic during the Rákosi era.
Luca’s husband, a dissident artist, was arrested by the state police and sentenced to 10 years in prison. The only routine in Luca’s derailed life is her visits to her 90-year-old mother-in-law.
Luca knows: the old woman will never see her son again. To avoid upsetting her sensitive mother in her twilight years, she invents stories: almost every day, a new letter arrives at her mother-in-law’s house, explaining her son’s absence and making the waiting more bearable.
