Budapest, 1914. A strangled woman’s body drifts ashore from the icy Danube. The victim is Elza Mágnás, one of the most infamous courtesans in the city. Inspired by a true story about love, passion, sex, power and murder, Demimonde chronicles the last four days of Elza, her complex relationship with her housekeeper, her patron and her lover, all told through the eyes of a young and naive maid. The bizarre and passionate relationship between them becomes relentlessly more complicated and dangerous, manipulated by the men surrounding Elza – right up to the shocking climax.

A quiet and effective psychological mystery that intelligently navigates the evolution of the trio’s dynamic, Demimonde was originally released in 2015 and won numerous awards on the international film festival circuit.
