Documentary

Games of “socialist” Monopoly were played in the Soviet Union: for the Hungarian version, called “Manage your money wisely”, the first to furnish an apartment would win the game. Four players meet before Thiago Carvalhaes’s camera to throw the dice once again, reliving, through interspersed archives, their memory of communist Budapest and what it has become under Orban.
