Somewhere in the remote region, the war ends. In the midst of ruined cities and houses in the streets, in rural hamlets, everywhere where people still live, are children who have lost their homes and parents. Abandoned, hungry, and in rags, defenseless and humiliated, they wander through the world. Hunger drives them. Little streams of orphans merge into a river which rushes forward and submerges everything in its path. The children do not know any feeling; they know only the world of their enemies. They fight, steal, struggle for a mouthful of food, and violence is merely a means to get it. A gang led by Cahoun finds a refuge in an abandoned castle and encounters an old composer who has voluntarily retired into solitude from a world of hatred, treason, and crime. How can they find a common ground, how can they become mutual friends? The castle becomes their hiding place but possibly it will also be their first home which they may organize and must defend. But even for this, the price will be very high.
To this simple story, the journalist, writer, poet, scriptwriter, movie director, and film theoretician Béla Balázs applied many years of experience. He and the director Géza Radványi created a work which opened a new postwar chapter in Hungarian film. Surprisingly, this film has not lost any of its impact over the years, especially on a profound philosophical level. That is to say, it is not merely a movie about war; it is not important in what location and in what period of time it takes place. It is a story outside of time about the joyless fate of children who pay dearly for the cruel war games of adults.
At the time it was premiered, the movie was enthusiastically received by the critics. The main roles were taken by streetwise boys of a children's group who created their roles improvisationally in close contact with a few professional actors, and in the children's acting their own fresh experience of war's turmoil appears to be reflected. At the same time, their performance fits admirably into the mosaic of a very complex movie language. Balázs's influence revealed itself, above all, in the introductory sequences: an air raid on an amusement park, seen in a montage of dramatic situations evoking the last spasms of war, where, undoubtedly, we discern the influence of classical Soviet cinematography. Shooting, the boy's escape, the locomotive's wheels, the shadows of soldiers with submachine guns, the sound of a whistle—the images are linked together in abrupt sequences in which varying shots and expressive sharp sounds are emphasized. A perfectly planned screenplay avoided all elements of sentimentality, time-worn stereotypes of wronged children, romanticism and cheap simplification. The authors succeeded in bridging the perilous dramatic abyss of the metamorphosis of a children's community. Their telling of the story (the scene of pillaging, the assault on the castle, etc) independently introduced some neorealist elements which, at that time, were being propagated in Italy by De Sica, Rossellini, and other film artists. The rebukes of contemporary critics, who called attention to "formalism for its own sake" have been forgotten. The masterly art of cameraman Barnabás Hegyi gives vitality to the poetic images. His angle shots of the children, his composition of scenes in the castle interior, are a living document of the times, and underline the atmosphere and the characters of the protagonists. The success of the picture was also enhanced by the musical art of composer Dénes Buday who, in tense situations, inserted the theme of the Marseilaise into the movie's structure, as a motive of community unification, as an expression of friendship and the possibility of understanding.
Valahol Europaban is the first significant postwar Hungarian film. It originated in a relaxed atmosphere, replete with joy and euphoria, and it includes these elements in order to demonstrate the strength of humanism, tolerance, and friendship. It represents a general condemnation of war anywhere in the world, in any form.
克隆技术只是情节需要，不能算是科幻电影。唯一亮点就是结局让你猜，留下的是本尊还是替身，都说得通。
导演既是编剧，导演是想说原生家庭和爱人冷漠的关系？好吧，被杀死的不是复制体而是身边最亲密的人
结尾差评 虽然有反转但是攒了九十分钟大招你就给我看这个 很多哲学很多探讨很多深层次的提问 我懂 但是攒了九十分钟大招你就给我看这个？星云很美 没了
荒诞片啊。女主还是杀心不够，为了生存，身体健康不是唯一，还需要强大的内心！复制人成长的很快，未来未必会回到之前的生活。
倾向于 本体被毒死 活下来的是克隆人 最后的绝望是因为看到了本体生活的尽头而自己还要活着过下去
荒诞而有趣的科幻片，愚蠢的本体，白练了一年的杀人技，被自己的克隆体PTU，然后一瓶水给毒死……，哈哈哈～😜🤪😂
假亦真时真亦假。
看评论和影评看笑了，结局都这么明显了，还在争活下来的是不是本体
跟天鹅挽歌差不多的主题，只是我看了半天，实在没有找到女主有啥理由在临死前复制一个自己，你的生活愉快吗？家庭幸福吗？这样的你还有必要延续吗？想不通......所以最后被复制体毒死好像也没什么意外。
那么高级的片子居然大家都嗤之以鼻，也是无语了。讲真，感性层面我相信是本体活着。但是唯一的漏洞是回答的汽车怎么撞坏的那个问题，无解。母亲和男友喜欢的都是那个他们想要喜欢的样子，并不是女主本身的样子。这个黑色幽默已经到了惊悚的程度了。但是你不要说，真有这样的亲人存在。女主就是那种心太软，什么事情都想着别人，自己吃点亏没关系。和以前的我真像。
条目图片区有剧透，实验室的故事挺好，导演编剧提莫塔哈亚托
这片子比较一般，关于值得玩味的结局分析我有长影评，可以下面翻翻。值得一提的是我一直以为星云一副冷酷傲娇的表情是角色需要，没想到这货原来一直就是这样的表情。。。
结局稍有遗憾，我还以为她会继续继承sarah的新生活呢，没想到是和他给sarah用的心理战术的人说的一样痛苦的活着，悲伤的承受了
20220711 最后没看到决斗 不太过瘾
下水道秘宗社团强酸猛袭践踏媒体，殡仪馆守灵人作死扑街，科学怪人大杀四方机器姬人性未泯，逗逼民兵枪自嗨被吸血鬼团灭，都市传说与邪典与残肢番茄酱的狂舞。影片的时代背景置于互联网猪突猛进的94-95年，但细品一下却也非常契合短视频平台制霸全球作死网红笑傲江湖的当下。（修改补发，也不知道是哪个字眼触动了赵匡胤的禁脔......）
我觉得结尾段挺出彩的，根据细节克隆体应该一直暗中观察学习本体的生活方式，用一年的时间酝酿好了怎么杀死本体，但是杀死本体又有什么用呢，即使不喜欢依然要继续本体操蛋的生活，不能按自己的方式生活这样还算活着吗
电影院不会有英文字幕版.也许是因为《火药奶昔》里的女刺客还不够出名。
虽然故事整体呈现的逻辑不那么写实、现实，几乎没有科幻可言，但是一本正经搞笑和讲故事的风格，让我觉得比那些虚伪的主流故事意外好看。
知难而上的逆行
6分。科幻外衣下的人性探讨。许多对白还是很精炼的，还很黑色幽默，故事讲得很流畅，最后的结局也在意料之中。
