Requiem

In 1951 Pelle Gyula, a former inmate brings the news to the wonderful Netti about the death of Hannover István, much experienced fighter of the workers movement arrested in 1949. Netti, the lover of Hannover married doctor Ágoston in the meantime, the defence attorney of the Communists who remained a successful man after 1949 as well. Pelle, the fellow prisoner revives the figure of Hannover in Netti, their love, and as a true friend and admirer of the dead, he sort of becomes a "reincarnation" of Hannover. Netti cannot live any more with doctor Ágoston and she leaves her husband. (Verleiher-Text)
