Mole

For a secret agent, the most important thing is the mission. They have to remain unseen and infiltrate unfamiliar environments. The protagonist in Mole lands in a world governed by routine. He appears out of nowhere, quickly hides his parachute and starts watching. At first, he's convinced that he has to be as careful as possible. In time, he realizes that the inhabitants of this strange place are not paying any attention to him. Nobody sees him. He can't interrupt anyone's conversation. He's unable to have an impact on the outcome of any social games or seduce a beautiful blonde. In the end, he'll want to be one of "them." Ildikó Enyedi creates an alternative reality somewhere at the edge of the world in the late 1980s, where politics doesn't exist. The most important thing is the repetitive nature of everyday life, which means safety. Time is cyclical. To preserve the status quo, someone from outside has to come and look with envy at the inhabitants of this "strange" land.
