A raw coming-of-age film by Hungarian Oscar winner László Nemes (Son of Saul, Sunset). Once again, we become privy to a poignant story set amidst the turmoil of the twentieth century in the heart of Europe.

After Son of Saul and Sunset, László Nemes presents Orphan. The film is set in the 1950s in Budapest, twelve years after the end of World War II. The life of a young Jewish boy is violently disrupted when a brutal man claims to be his real father. This does not match the ideal image that his mother has maintained all this time.
