Um jovem imigrante é alvejado quando tenta passar ilegalmente a fronteira. Aterrado e em estado de choque, Aryan, ferido, consegue agora levitar sempre que assim o entende. Atirado para um campo de refugidos, é de lá extraído pelo cínico Dr Stern que faz tenções de explorar o seu extraordinário segredo. Perseguidos por Laszlo, o furioso director do campo, os fugitivos mantêm-se em movimento, enquanto procuram segurança e dinheiro. Inspirado pelo espantoso poder de Aryan, Stern resolve dar um salto de fé num mundo em que os milagres não valem nada... (Filmin)

A Origem húngara sobre um médico de má consciência, um polícia mau anti-emigrante e um jovem e imortal refugiado da Síria que pode voar. Não é arte e é tão idiota como parece. E contém uma excelente perseguição de carro, de uma só tomada, através de Budapeste de manhã cedo. Uma peça esquisita de género formalmente ambicioso com conteúdo emocional e semanticamente disfuncional que, no seu conjunto, não será percebido por adolescentes que querem os efeitos e a ação nem por filósofos que se divertem com temas existenciais. O realizador quer ir a festivais e Hollywood, mas para mim, ele fica na barraca de langos.

Tecnicamente, A Lua de Júpiter é um vencedor absoluto, extraordinariamente trabalhado da forma artesanal, com câmara impecável e estilo artístico, combinando os filmes de crime americanos dos anos setenta com os modernos filmes de ficção científica como Crónica, Os Filhos do Homem ou A Origem, mas, ao mesmo tempo, é um filme com um visual húngaro em toda a sua duração. No entanto, uma grande abertura com uma rusga aos imigrantes ilegais, algumas excelentes cenas de ação/fuga e um tema notável não pode encobrir o subdesenvolvimento da história, que anda em círculos e reviravoltas mal feitas, e mistura analogias religiosas um pouco desnecessáriamente com comentário social iniciado sobre a crise dos refugiados. Mesmo assim, é outro exemplo de como o cinema húngaro tem crescido de forma escandalosa nos últimos anos.

Jupiter’s Moon is a major surprise, primarily because a person from Eastern Europe definitely would not expect a film of such rank. The film is not a committed festival darling as the premise may suggest, but rather has the most in common with the ambitious Hollywood overground. It unavoidably brings to mind Children of Men, with which its Hungarian equivalent shares not only plot motifs, but also a formal sweep and breathtaking production. With the aid of brilliantly conceived long shots with complicated camera movements and epic mise-en-scène, Mundruczó, like Cuarón, creates a pulsating image of the world, which serves as an attractive realistic framework for the fantastic plot. Both films tell variations of archetypal stories, but while the American project helps the archetype gain new emotionality and urgency, the Hungarian film brings a degree of morality with social and religious levels to the formula of a “Hollywood” story of awakening and salvation. Another analogy is Luc Besson’s work in the 1990s, which Jupiter’s Moon evokes primarily with its colour palette and overall style. However, whereas Besson placed genre-specific characters in outlandish non-genre-specific environments and situations, Mundruczó puts flawed, doubtful and egocentric non-genre-specific protagonists into larger-than-life genre-specific situations. Concurrently, when considering the context of the Hungarian reality with real refugees at the border and a polarised society, it is not easy to determine where Jupiter’s Moon falls on the scale of commercial art. However, it unambiguously provides overwhelming proof of the vitality of Hungarian cinema. If in previous years Czech criticism used it as a contrast for taking the measure of Czech production, it is now proving to be something completely unattainable for both local filmmakers and institutions. Jupiter’s Moon is an engaging spectacle that addresses the themes of its own festival-film production. With its sweeping nature, it also liberates the reality of refugees from the usual understanding offered by the media and brings forth a devastating catharsis of its incomprehensible monstrousness.

It's fascinating how many people can't find an excellent story unless a film explicitly tells them that it's telling one. In Jupiter's Moon there are dozens of suggestions and ideas in virtually every one of its long, incredibly composed takes. Yet nothing in it begs for your sympathy, the characters are confused, jaded, corrupt, and selfish, the refugee issue is not viewed in a purely one-sided way (we even get a terrorist attack), and it doesn't give answers. Only a vision of a torn, sodden continent, devoid of miracles, whose weakness has been exposed by the influx of convinced, head-high refugees fleeing destruction. I would have expected something this wild and radical from a 25-year-old director. Last year with Poland's The Last Family, this year with Hungary's Jupiter’s Moon, the Czech Republic really should hand in its filmmaking pass for the next ten years.

I must say I got a little lost in this film. I didn’t find the main character relatable. Plus, I didn't get what the filmmakers were trying to tell me. The three stars are for the sometimes almost stunning visuals, but the writing left a lot to be desired as far as I’m concerned. Also, I'm still wondering how the rotation of the apartment was supposed to work...
