"What tea do you want? We've got some mint tea," an old woman mutters to her apathetic husband, with whom she shares her cluttered home. She then goes up to the roof of her apartment block, from where she surveys the evening skyline over smog-veiled Budapest. And she jumps. We catch a fleeting glimpse of the other flats as the woman plunges past their windows – but we'll be seeing them again, one after the other, long enough to put a name to the "diagnosis" which shapes their inhabitants, all of whom are – regrettably, it has to be said – typical models of modern society. While given clear distinctions, the stories present numerous parallels. Seen in grotesque hyperbole, we are presented with a mockery of idle messianism and indifference – a spit in the face of hypocrisy. This highly imaginative, fine-tuned and, at the same time, unassuming film comes up with provocative ideas, while nothing about it would superficially cause the least offence. Sometimes not even jumping off a roof will do any good. (Karlovy Vary International Film Festival)

Deutsch Wenn Sie wissen, was Sie von Pálfi erwarten können (zum Beispiel, wenn Sie Taxidermia gesehen haben), wird Sie Freier Fall nicht sonderlich überraschen. Darin werden sieben bizarre Geschichten erzählt, die auf humorvoll-satirische Weise auf pathologische Phänomene und Missstände in der menschlichen Gesellschaft hinweisen, aber nur drei davon sind wirklich unterhaltsam. Die meisten von ihnen enden mit einer verrückten Pointe im fantasievollen Stil von Pálfi, der einige sensiblere Zuschauer (vor allem weibliche) schockieren könnte, während andere darüber lachen werden, aber die Hälfte dieser Pointen werden Sie vergessen, sobald Sie das Kino verlassen. Die elektronische Musik ist super. ()

Englisch (49th KVIFF) Bizarre, but not very tight entertainment in many ways. Two days later I’m already having trouble putting together what the “tales” were actually about. Taking seven ideas, wrapping them in “something” and “bunching” them together unfortunately is not enough for a feature film. But I didn’t get bored. ()
