The Investigator

How far would you go to save a loved one who is dying? Tibor Malkáv, an unemotional and detached assistant pathologist, would do anything. His mother is dying of bone marrow cancer and he does not have the money to get her the surgery she needs – until one day when Tibor is offered a great reward for killing a man he has never met. After promising his mother she will not die, he accepts the offer and commits the crime. Only days later does Tibor receive a letter from the victim claiming that they had the same father and that they were half-brothers. After being questioned by detectives, Tibor starts his own investigation as to who really wanted his relative killed and why. Knowing that he is the real killer the entire time, he still takes on the role of THE INVESTIGATOR. Winner of the Best Actor, Best Editing, and Best Screenplay awards at Hungarian Film Week, THE INVESTIGATOR is a brilliant film with shocking scenes and deep meaning behind it.
