This Hungarian black comedy centres on a group of ticket inspectors on the Budapest underground. The system runs on an 'honour' system, with the inspectors, led by Sándor Csányi, meant to check people have tickets. But frankly, they don't care so long as they reach their quota of catches and in addition, there's a hooded killer haunting the system, pushing passengers under trains which is disrupting their work. And there's the bear that's become trapped in the system... Nimród Antal's debut feature veers from the surreal to the comic but is always accessible.
