Si̇nema Transtopia
Taxi driver József Simon is robbed by two elderly lady passengers. The divorced, debt-ridden man turns to the police in vain, but they simply do not believe him. He takes matters into his own hands, starts investigating and quickly comes across the professional thieves who duped him. Having lost faith in the legal system, he starts a one-man action campaign using increasingly professional methods. “The Vulture” radically modernized the Hungarian thriller and has proven to be highly influential in the genre ever since.
