Woyzeck (Lajos Kovács) is a miserable railway flagman living in Budapest. In order to support his common-law wife Mari (Diana Vacaru), Woyzeck is obliged to become the subject of a series of strange experiments by a local doctor (Péter Haumann). While the experiments begin to shake Woyzeck's already tenuous grasp on reality, his world truly begins to fall apart when Mari embarks upon an affair with a local police officer (Aleksandr Porokhovshchikov).

01/27/2015 Cinematic Masterpiece rivaled only by it exquisite cinematography! Must turn on subtitles via your remote as it is NOT an option on the disc itself! See more 01/24/2011 Man it was Tense throughout. the English subtitles don't do it justice like most foreign language films. Lajos Kovacs is a Genius Actor whether its in this, Kontroll, Argo, the Radiohead music video 'Karma Police', or a Guiness Commercial - The guy is impressive to watch. See more Read all reviews
