Using almost no dialogue, the film follows a number of residents (both human and animal) of a small rural community in Hungary - an old man with hiccups, a shepherdess and her sheep, an old woman who may or may not be up to no good, some folk-singers at a wedding, etc. While most of the film is a series of vignettes, there is a sinister and often barely perceptible subplot involving murder....

Leave your thoughts about Hukkle.
| San Francisco ChronicleG. Allen JohnsonWhat film is all about, but all too often isn't -- it challenges its audience to look at the world in a different way. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonPacks more bizarre ideas into its 75 minutes than most films do with two hours. |
| Orlando SentinelRoger MooreIt's a novelty, and an educational one at that. It reminds you of just how dumb your average movie is these days. |
| european-films.netBoyd van HoeijSome of the things encountered in Hukkle are brilliant cinematic conceits, which the director properly builds up to their punchline. |
| Boxoffice MagazineJordan ReedBy merely capturing the seemingly simple images of work and play, human and synthetic, Palfi constantly juxtaposes the natural and industrial realms to startling effect. |
| Village VoiceJ. HobermanDeranging a venerable Hungarian tradition of "village sociology," Pálfi employs a bizarrely associative montage to fashion a portrait of a traditional peasant community -- just a midsummer Sunday on Mars. |
| Chicago TribuneMichael WilmingtonA film driven by an elusive plot buried like a cryptogram under the action. It's a delightfully screwy ethnographic murder mystery, beautifully photographed in translucent naturalistic color. |
| New York TimesStephen HoldenIt works just fine as a sophisticated wildlife documentary with a submerged narrative. But if you enjoy the challenge of solving difficult mysteries, Hukkle presents a tantalizing case waiting to be cracked. |
| Christian Science MonitorDavid SterrittHovering between vivid countryside documentary and understated melodrama, this almost wordless film is a unique excursion into fascinating territory. |
| Film Journal InternationalHarry HaunThe picture is so completely detailed and precise in its depiction of pastoral beauty that, if you blink, you might well minimize--or miss--the murder that gradually darkens the story. |
