  </br> I love Grazyna Szapolowska´s gestures, the way she touches each object and herself (her face specially), as being able to hold every feeling and thought in her hands. </br> </br>

  "Another Way" starts with Livia(Grazyna Szapolowska) recovering from serious injuries in a hospital in Hungary in 1958. Her wounds are more than just physical, as she also mourns the loss of her friend Eva(Jadwiga Jankowska) while Livia's husband Donci(Peter Andorai) is in jail. Livia first met Eva when she came to work at a journal in Budapest, despite her political past. With a stable job, her friend and former lover Magda(Judit Pogany) pays her a visit. How in the name of Lenin did this movie get made in Hungary with the Communists in power? I am not talking about the eroticism or its sensitive take on a sapphic romance.(Compare this to the awkward "Personal Best" which was made around the same time.) No, as the director says in an interview on the DVD, gender really does not matter in this relationship which goes to show the lack of privacy in Communist Hungary where everybody is watching, informers are rampant and police interfere in personal lives. That leaves the only interesting conversations to be had in corridors, not in conference rooms where the decisions are made.
