About
You may like Satantango if you enjoy bleak, patient stories about a community under strain and don’t mind a very slow, heavy mood; Not for you if you want a fast-moving plot or lighter entertainment, and you might also appreciate Werckmeister Harmonies or The Turin Horse.
Pros: bleak atmosphere; patient storytelling; strong sense of place | Cons: very long runtime; slow pace; emotionally draining
