Mastergame
// Mesterjátszma 

In this free adaptation of Stefan Zweig’s ’The Royal Game’, a young rebel couple is escaping from the Russian tanks in Budapest in 1956 on one of the last refugee trains. Meanwhile a young catholic priest is imprisoned and tortured by the communists in order to deliver information about a large parcel of Vatican treasures.
On this train these story lines are crossing during an exciting chess game, and it turns out that almost nobody and nothing is what it seems to be.
