Directed by István Orosz • 1989 • Hungary

A late socialist take on M. C. Escher from the master of the mathematical and the absurd, István Orosz. Mind the Steps! reimagines a typical apartment block in Budapest from the ever-shifting perspective of a young boy. The architecture and its inhabitants metamorphose before our eyes in Orosz’s distinctive, monochrome style, hinting at the regime change that was just around the corner in Eastern Europe.
